After disabling URL previews in Signal for security reasons, I wanted to do the same in #Element just to be on the safe side.
Locating this option took me quite a while because I did not expect it to be tucked away under the “Images, GIFs and videos” section heading.
Here is the full click path:
Settings → Options → “Images, GIFs and videos” → “Enable inline URL previews by default” → no
