Embedded browsers have many great use cases, but navigating to arbitrary links is not one of them.

It's virtually never useful to me when I click on a link in Slack or whatever, then respond to a text message, and go back to my browser expecting to find my page there, and it's nowhere because Slack has gobbled it up in its own browser.

Fortunately I just checked and there's a way to disable the embedded browser in Slack.
