Also, Microcosm seems to have inserted '%C2%AD' into the URL when I c&p it, but it doesn't work with this removed, either.

The app is shit :shrug

That is standard URL encoding and should break nothing https://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_urlencode.ASP the characters you cite represent UTF-8 whitespace which is not valid in a URL and must be encoded.

Interesting, I didn't see any spaces in the original link, so is UTF-8 whitespace invisible? The original link seemed to have only ASCII characters.

Very hard for me to guess things based on assuming what you've seen. I am simply saying that those characters are valid, desired even, and represent whitespace in the URL which is invalid.
