SUMMARY
I'm currently using a matrix server implementation that doesn't have URL
Previews implemented (endpoint `/_matrix/media/v3/preview_url`). So in order to
get rid of the endless spinning cog on preview url attempts, I tried turning
them off in settings. This didn't change the behaviour and I still see the
spinning cog.
(Aside: The server returns an `M_UNRECOGNIZED` errcode if the endpoint isn't
supported. It might be worth hitting the endpoint and see if it returns that
error code to determine if the url preview should be loaded)
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect to a server without the preview_url endpoint implemented or turned
off
2. Attempt to turn off link previews in messages
3. Confirm that the "loading preview" image is still displayed
OBSERVED RESULT
"Loading Preview" is displayed even if the link previews are turned off in the
client
EXPECTED RESULT
"Loading Preview" shouldn't be displayed
