So if you render a mxc:// url in the timeline it will be automatically reconciled into a (clickable, copy+pastable) media repo https:// url for you HS?

That is what I want to suggest yes

I'd say that this is actually also partly a bug, not just a feature request:

Selection_538

As there's no explicit MXC URL parsing, it's being caught by the generic URL linkifier, which misinterprets it as a protocol-relative (ie. usually HTTPS) URL, and produces a broken link.

So, indeed,
mxc://matrix.org/xYADvTIVsAuDwmEfjLjTxPLJ
shall become
<server url>/_matrix/media/r0/download/<locator>
like on my local server:
https://matrix.grin.hu:8448/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/xYADvTIVsAuDwmEfjLjTxPLJ

If only it was easy with the existing linkification library :D

Blocked on Hypercontext/linkifyjs#194 or us finding a new linkification lib

Noticing that this issue is not touched since 2017 I ain't particularly hopeful.

This SO answer lists a few viable alternatives. Autolinker (demo) seems particularly nice with its custom replacement function.

Not easy to move off linkifyjs, as that's what is used to linkify room aliases, mxid references and community references. Autolinker has special handlers for @grinapo style mentions and #hashtags but not generic to extend to MXID, room aliases and community ids.
