Currently I am preparing the text for a paper (together with two coauthors) where we cite help from MO on two occasions. I am doing this using the cite
button. It works correctly both in Acrobat and SumatraPDF, i. e. leads to the correct place when clicked from inside pdf. However when I do it in the built in gmail pdf viewer, both in latest builds of Chrome and Firefox, it gives a wrong page, although on MO. The reason is that I don't know why but it shaves off the very last symbol of the url. This happens with both links.
I am on Windows 10. Here is one of the two cases; the second produces identical error.
I want to cite the answer https://mathoverflow.net/a/313198. The cite
link with the amsrefs option produces
\bib\{313198}{misc}{
title={Seeking a more symmetric realization of a configuration of 10 planes, 25 lines and 15 points in projective space},
author={Noam D. Elkies (https://mathoverflow.net/users/14830/noam-d-elkies)},
note={URL: https://mathoverflow.net/q/313198 (version: 2018-10-19)},
eprint={https://mathoverflow.net/q/313198},
organization={MathOverflow}
}
which I paste as
\bib{MOElkies}{misc}{
label={E},
title={Seeking a more symmetric realization of a configuration of 10 planes, 25 lines and 15 points in projective space},
author={Noam D. Elkies (https://mathoverflow.net/users/14830/noam-d-elkies)},
note={URL: https://mathoverflow.net/q/313198 (version: 2018-10-19)},
eprint={https://mathoverflow.net/q/313198},

}
into the tex file between \begin{bibdiv}\begin{biblist}*{labels={shortalphabetic}}
and \end{biblist}\end{bibdiv}
(along with several other references).
As I said, the url is correct in the Acrobat and SumatraPDF; in the gmail pdf viewer, if I copy the link it is also OK, but if I click on it, I am sent to https://mathoverflow.net/q/31319, which is, understandably, an entirely different answer to an entirely different question.
I am not sure whether to use the bug tag here, as apparently it is a bug in the gmail pdf viewer, not in the MO system, but I believe still something has to be done about it.
