Change Apple Mail link default to plain link

By default when I paste a URL into an email it uses the 'preview' style link which contains the open graph info. I just want plain links by default, but can't see where to set that behavior and don't see any reference to this issue online?

Apple should make this behavior a choice in the Apple Mail preferences instead of relying on hacks.

It is a pain to covert each link to a URL. They totally lost their minds when it came to this one.


I've been using for 40 years. It seems that they are drifting downhill slowly in many aspects, hardware and software.


If they don't change it within a few months, I'm going to change email software.
