Description
If I look at my profile page, two things disturb me:
-
The "..." Menu. I put links on the profile page because I want to have them visible and easy to discover. Hiding stuff in the "..."-menu while we have plenty of space vertically doesn't make sense to me.
-
Links only show the globe as icon. This doesn't look nice and it is not possible to see what kind of links it is. E.g. I have a LinkedIn and Twitter link, all with the same icon. I would suggest to grab the favicon from the linked page and display is. This way we could show nice linkedin and twitter icons.

Research direction
The issue concerns link rendering on the profile page; start by locating the profile-page entry point and inspecting the current overflow-menu and icon behavior. Done means profile links are visible without the “...” menu and their icons distinguish the linked destinations, with the behavior verified in the relevant checks.
