Did this work before? N/A

They appear to be using javascript to render the link like this....

<a href="https://example.com/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank" onclick="return Q.openUrl(this, 44815039);" class="external_link" data-qt-tooltip="example.com" data-tooltip="attached">example.com</a>

It's no longer doing it. Not sure why but no extra plugins were installed other than adblock plus.
