Make hyperlinks clickable in notes without special markdown syntax

[brettinternet]

Some markdown flavors parse links event without the hyperlink syntax [https://github.com](https://github.com). Is this possible to implement with the markdown parser that you use for the description/notes input?

Not an exact solution, but if you just want a shorter syntax for links, you can do:

<https://github.com/>

Oh thank you, I wasn't aware of that markdown syntax.

This is what linkding uses: https://python-markdown.github.io/

Doesn't look like there is an existing extension for that.

Looks like there are some third party extensions that may do the trick if you're interested: https://github.com/Python-Markdown/markdown/wiki/Third-Party-Extensions#url-conversion. I think this could be valuable shorthand to provide additional links as context to each bookmark.
