@aliceif @kura safari on desktop does it by default, as does at least one other browser — brave i think. it was having to dig to find the setting to turn truncated urls off in desktop brave i think that provoked the microrant. but i can’t check right now.

UPDATE: It looks like Brave on desktop does the right thing (does not truncate). Contrary to what I misremembered above, on desktop (MacOS), truncation remains uniquely a Safari pathology.

@aliceif @kura Here's a screenshot of five MacOS desktop browsers (Safari, Firefox, Brave, Chrome, Vivaldi).

Five desktop browsers (Safari, Firefox, Brave, Chrome, Vivaldi) pointing to the same URL on MacOS. Safari hides the path part of the URL. The rest do not.
