WARNING: Phishing Attacks, HTML markup to hide urls, are now in Mastodon.

While Mastodon does not have markup to allow hiding urls, they share API with "friendica" and friendica ALLOW HIDING URLS.

And friendica accounts can post on Mastodon.
I have asked for a solution, none is forthcoming.

Click NO LINKS that come friendica. Be wary of links on Mastodon, as if Mastodon were "email" - without any protections.

Multiple reports of other fediverse branches allow hiding urls. No Clicking links
