With commit 2b00d6281 I can reproduce the display of e.g.
[[https://duckduckgo.com][ddg]] as "https://duckduckgo.com".

With commit b1429cdfe and also f0dc3a06d the link is displayed as "ddg".

Further C-c C-o, which is bound here to command org-open-at-point, on
the following heading opens the webpage as expected for commit
2b00d6281, b1429cdfe and f0dc3a06d.

#v+
* duckduckgo
[[http://duckduckgo.com][ddg]]

IOW I can't reproduce your issue AFAICS.

Is it a configuration issue?
