Tiny links on Steam
So I think I may have accidentally changed a setting on Steam, and now next to the hyperlinks on my profile are tiny "links" displaying the websites basic web address. The hyperlinks have not been erased yet it is kind of pointless because the tiny "links" are not even links just web addresses in brackets. The tiny "links" just mess with formatting and it just does not look pleasant on the eye.

Here is an example of what I mean, the tiny links are outlined by the big red arrows: http://i.imgur.com/c0BmmcY.png

Basically I don't know if this has only been happening to me and if there is anyone who did something like this in the past and fixed it, how you did it would be a big help. Steam always used to warn me when I clicked on a link as well and I believe I may have disabled this feature also.

:advent::orb: Thanks in advance :orb::advent:

It was a new update made by Valve, implemented to tell the difference between fake and legit links, I believe.

Alright well that is kind of pointless, the warnings acutally forced someone to look at the link before following the hyperlink. It also did not mess with formatting and create unwanted things. Thanks for the help

Warnings are pointless, nobody reads them and they just click ok.

That's your opinion, some poeple do some people don't. Tiny website addresses that are next to hyperlinks are worse in my opinion. Not to mention the fact that hyperlinks are usually used in place of website addresses, now there are both. I understand the point of it but it just unneeded in my opinion.
