Thanks for the report @Vang313 — all three are implemented in #302.

Item 3 was a genuine bug: links opened on mouse press, so a text selection that started on a link navigated away instead of selecting. They now open on release, and a drag that starts on a link never navigates.

Items 1 and 2 are new settings: Settings → Appearance → "Links" for the link colour (it recolours both live preview and reading mode, and stays on the accent colour until you change it), and Settings → Editor → "Paste URLs as titled links" to switch between [page title](url) and the bare URL. Pasting a URL over selected text still wraps the selection either way.
