If I type intervals.icu in a comment to a strava activity, strava will delete that phrase. Is it a bug?
Strava does not allow any link to Intervals.
Actually, Strava’s new T&C is to disallow ANY sort of links. They started stripping all comments / Titles with LInks.
Ok, so we have to replace it with intervals dot icu then. Until they find out, and then we change the space to the mongolian vowel separator etc. Seems futile to me…
they are not specifically targeting intervals.icu they are specifically disallowing links.
I think they are stripping anything that has http/https.
you can google for more details. I found this out when My links were deleted automatically
I wrote in an activity comment that the interval looks correct on intervals.icu and it removed that phrase, ie also without the http-prefix. It didn’t delete the whole sentence, just the word.
Try any other links. Maybe even if it’s Strava.com it will also strip it out.
I just tested
I wrote
Check Out at Strava.com
Check Out at interval.icu
Check Out at TrainingPeaks.com
Check Out at TrainerDay.com
Everything except Strava.com got stripped out.
Becoming.
Check Out at Strava.com
Check Out at
Check Out at
Check Out at
So same as when you type a URL on the browser. It automatically gets translated to http/https so it gets removed.
In my country, the local govt has instructed the telcos to strip out all URLS from SMS… cos of scams.
It is the Internet not the Stravanet! I wonder if Garmin allows links? I hardly look at that, But now I will take a hard look.
