Show the real URL of masked links on hover

Current problem

There is no way of showing where a link leads to when formatted with Markdown. For example: google.com -> Is actually https://badactordomain.com/ Fluxer not showing the target of the link (my mouse is hovering over the link): image

Proposed change

Reveal the target of the URL on hover as seen in Discord: image

Clicking the link will show the real domain in the untrusted domain popup. Fluxer_Canary_NFQqbwoqXE With that being said, a tooltip would be nice so you don't have to click on it (or have the unknown site popup disabled)

I avoid clicking links without knowing where I am going first. With that said, I genuinely forgot about that modal in Fluxer haha. I still think the tooltip is a nice quality of life feature.

Yeah it would still be nice to not have to click or debug the message
