Action Performed:

  1. Navigate to a conversation
  2. Send this message [Yo (click here to see a cool cat)](https://c8.alamy.com/compes/ha11pc/cookie-cat-con-sombrero-de-cowboy-y-sun-glass-ha11pc.jpg)
  3. Check the message in the history

Expected Result:

The link should be hyperlinked even if there is a ) before the ].

Actual Result:

Link is not hyperlinked. Checked on Github and it gets hyperlinked correctly so this seems like an issue. Important: Same happens for other punctuation marks.

Example Yo (click here to see a cool cat)

Workaround:

User can send the link without the formatting

@mananjadhav yup! As per this information here, contracts are paid 7 days after the pull request is merged to allow for regression testing. Payment is scheduled to be issued in 2 days.

Looks great on first pass, I will review it further shortly. @NicMendonca - Can you please hire @mananjadhav via Upwork? Thanks!
