Did I miss something? All of a sudden there's no "preview" of posted articles, just the link. Unintentional change of my settings?

You unintentionally clicked “Headers” instead of “Text” in the “Articles” line immediately above this thread in the main thread area.

Me, too. After the third or fourth time, you remember where to look.

Pasting in a piece of an article is useful but the pastes often don’t explain the headline. That’s because most authors write multiple paragraphs before getting around to the subject of their headline.

That's exactly why I don't use "auto-excerpt." It often takes a bit of time to craft a good excerpt. The worst ones include extraneous info, other article headlines, advertisements, etc.

Yeah, I hate that. Reading through an article at a good speed and then this sentence shows up that makes no sense. On the websites, it's usually a different color or font but once pasted here, they blend right in. When you highlight a whole article that has images, some websites will throw text in place of the image.
