No redirect for link expanders applications.

Why Opera and Opera Mini do not allow redirection to link expanders applications when a shortened link is triggered? Google Chrome and Samsung Internet allow.

I'm trying to see what's going on, but having hard time triggering "App Redirect" in Chrome. How do you do that?
I've tried to load https://tinyurl.com/KindleWireless in Chrome, but it just opens the original URL without getting any option for App Redirect. Checked on Android 8.1 phone.

@miyukiwork (123456w0rK:) (human+machine+human translation:) Anyone of those link expander apps shown in the screenshot are offered as an alternative in Google Chrome and Samsung Internet when a shortened link is on a .HTM page but unfortunately not in Opera and Opera Mini.
(Shortened links are very useful with YouTube.)

Thanks for the extra explanation. I was totally blind on that, but now I can see how the behavior differences. We'll try to fix it in the future version.

We have reported this to our internal system, so it'll be looked into eventually.

@miyukiwork (machine+human translation(:| After more tests I apparently found the new functionality in Opera that did not resolve completely the problem of not directly targeting to link expander applications but now allows them to pop up from the copy feature, some screenshots about the subject; thanks 123456wOrK:

@miyukiwork (machine translation(:| Please, is not there in the Opera Forums the ability to edit and delete old postings no longer needed?

@leocg Images that appear in the Opera Forums more than once in Uploads can be deleted leaving only one of them?

Nope, they can't.

@miyukiwork I was wrong, the feature shown in the recent four screenshots is not related to Opera, sorry.
