Then I don't know... @khaleelkazi words implied that any link should be a referral link. But copied from the browser it won't have the ?referral=username tag attached to it. I don't know how the back-end works to answer.
Try making a thread with #feedback tag.
Aah... indeed! I have to remember to use the 'copy link' -tap next time since copying from the browser is missing that ref part. Thanks for your help!

It does, look at this link in this thread
As @brando28 said - you need to use the copy link button under the 3 dots menu
