Forum/Site links look crap when posted to facebook

It's been this way for ages and I always thought it would get sorted, but it hasn't and I'm starting to wonder if it's because you don't know about it or do but there's some reason you can't fix it.

Anyway, try it for yourself. If you paste a link from anywhere on the Serato site, you'll see that:

1. Every link has the same, standard text, regardless of the content; example:
Log In | Serato.com
serato.com

Serato creates world leading DJ software

2. You're lucky if you get to choose a thumbnail of any description

3. Sometimes you get an image with some descriptive text and at other times you're just left with a whole lot of blank white space.

Not a major issue, but it's not a good look. No idea how the links perform on other social media sites cause I don't really use 'em.

Anyway, if you don't know, now you know. lol

Seems this issue with Serato links has persisted for a long time, and it’s unclear whether it’s due to oversight or some limitation on their end. When you paste any link from the Serato site, the preview consistently shows the same standard text like “Log In | Serato.com” or “Serato creates world leading DJ software,” leaving no room for context-specific descriptions. Thumbnails are often restricted or defaulted, and sometimes you get an image with some text, while other times you’re stuck with blank white space, making the sharing experience inconsistent. For example, if you check a page like xxbrits.baddiehub.news, you can see how a properly structured link preview with descriptive text and images improves clarity and engagement.
