Since of 2 days ago , I have been experiencing an issue where song links that I copied from Spotify and pasted into telegram no longer open a preview like they used to. Before this bug occurred when I pasted a song link from Spotify, it would display the song name , album art , artist name , release date and etc, but now it only displays "Spotify"(As seen in the image attached). Please fix this bug , or let me know if its a problem on my end. Thanks in advance.
Steps to reproduce
1.Go to Spotify , go over to any song , right click on the song title , hover over "Share" , and copy the song link.
2.Go to any chat on Telegram , and paste it.
3.Link preview does not appear as it used to :(
Device info
Telegram Desktop 3.4.3 x64, Vostro 15-3568, Windows 10
I can confirm the "Unsupported Browser" on IOS 15.3 and Telegram 8.4. On MacOS 12.0.1 and Telegram 8.4.1 (225774) Stable I can confirm the "Spotify" Preview instead of the normal Preview.

Same here, Android 8, Telegram 8.4.3. Started around a week ago. Manually stripping link back to the "?" does restore the preview. But it's a pain as I use this a lot, & my eyesight is poor! Hope for a fix soon...
Apparently, even when removing the "?si=...", the preview isn't always shown. I couldn't find out when exactly it shows and when not. It behaves in an unclear and unexpected manner. Please fix this

PLEASE FIX THIS, we shouldn't bother removing nothing. Whatsapp has no problems with any links, but we don't want to go back to Zap, aren't we? :D

Example link, with preview not working:

When removing everything including and after the "?si=", the preview is shown. Example link with working preview:
