    Links to normal web pages no longer show up as videos or images

    What was broken
    The app guessed a link was a video or image if a file ending appeared anywhere in it. A news page on webmd.com showed a video player because "webm" was in the site name.
    What I changed
    A link now counts as a video, image or audio only when the file ending is at the very end of the address.
    Why it matters
    Posts that link to articles show as links, not broken players.
