Is this link from the Apple domain safe

While I was browsing for a solution for an issue on my iPhone, I came across this link. Is it safe?

I clicked it mistakenly and the messages app opened automatically. I am a little sceptic on clicking links. Unfortunately I mistakenly clicked it on my iPhone. Now I’m a bit worried.

Tried scanning using virus total but no luck.

Installing malicious programs on clicking a link A recent article in the Taipei Times on a spate of scams targeting iMessage states: “Clicking on some links can allow malicious programs to be installed on iPhones, giving scammers access to authentication codes and personal and financial information,” https://www.taipeitimes.com/News/taiwan/archives/2023/04/18/20037 Is this correct? Naturally following the links and entering credit card info is unwise, but I didn’t think clicking a link could install software on iOS

Clicked link in fake UPS text - now what? I clicked on a link in a fake UPS text that was requesting that I pay a delivery fee. It looked very real because I was expecting a package from the vendor it listed in the text and had my name and postal code. It took me to what looked like to be a real UPS website for payment. I avoided the phishing scam, since I didn't enter any personal info. But could my phone be infected with malware from clicking on the link? Running IOS 16.2. Thanks!

Clicking Suspicious Links I accidentally clicked a link on my iPhone (SE 2020, iOS 16.6) when I was tired. Safari gave me the ‘this website may be impersonating the site you wish to access to steal your personal or financial information’ warning but the URL displayed was still the one I unintentionally clicked. I then returned to the page I was on without doing/clicking anything. Did Safari actually block this site? I read that even if you end up on a malicious page, nothing can happen to an iPhone unless you click/download/permit something or type details, is this still true? As far as I know iOS doesn’t allow scans so is there anything else I should do now or look out for? Thanks.
