If I write the text test git@github.com in a code block, the client transforms it to `test <mailto:git@github.com git@github.com>`, and copying it back relays that same text which I did not write. It makes copying and pasting repositories annoying. If I enter text into a code block I expect to see back exactly what I put in that code block. Can we stop the mailtos processing from happening inside code blocks?

You'll have to email Slack about it. It's their server doing it, not Ripcord. The same thing happens in the Slack web client, except that it sometimes gets suppressed when you do ctrl+c (sometimes it doesn't, though!)

Actually... hmm. Maybe I should try to add something to Ripcord. Try to hide the bad behavior of their server, which is automatically modifying messages in undesirable ways. I should also probably try to see if there's a way to opt out of it these days. I haven't checked in a while. Thanks for reminding me.
