Yeah, it's not really documented, so I was quite surprised when it first happened. They talk about it here though: https://twitter.com/SlackHQ/status/505178492431269888

Slack has some surprising, hard to discover UI tricks. Another one I learned recently is you can make text into a hyperlink by copying a URL to your clipboard, highlighting the text in Slack, and pasting. https://twitter.com/ftrain/status/1240387882507997186

Ha, cool trick! Reminds me of the Trello trick where if you press the 'copy' keyboard shortcut while hovering over a card, it will copy a link to that specific card.

Requires a leading /. Discord does this too, but without that requirement.
