I'm also seeing this with shares from Firefox on iOS 18.3.

Same here when using reddit, brave or any other app which is not safari. The title or description is added to the link in hoarder, which makes it impossible to crawl.
As the links can not be edited, this is permanent.

It looks like the patter for the apps are $HEREGOES WEBSITE TITLE,https://andtheurl.com .
Comma separated strings basically. Not sure how this behaves if there is comma in the title itself.
