Transparent shares don't get previews in other apps

When sharing a link to a post with an image, other apps like Telegram and Discord include a preview of the image within the post. This works for the original post, but transparent share posts end up with no image in the preview. I've been noticing this a lot because the new share widget that uses the mobile OS share sheet uses the URL of the transparent share you're viewing.
Given this isn't cohost's own behaviour, I'm not 100% sure if this is something you have the ability to do something about. It'd be really helpful if it can be fixed though, since I share cohost posts via messaging apps all the time.
