Messages links open in-app, no Safari option (iOS 26.2)

All links that Messages open in apps (Reddit/Youtube/etc.) and I have no choice to open in Safari instead (on iOS 26.2). Before the upgrade with the new Liquid Glass interface, I used to be able to long press the link and choose to open it in Safari or in the Reddit/TikTok/Youtube/etc. app. Is that something I can re-enable or is it just gone from the new update?
