Changes partially successful

Yesterday’s changes were partially successful.

First of all there was the Bluesky clickable links, which were completely successful. Links in Bluesky are now consistently clickable. That’s what I expected, the change was quite straight forward and predictable.

Secondly there was the social media cards. At first it looked like it had been a complete failure, with none of Bluesky, Twitter and Nostr showing any cards for the latest posts. Kind of disappointing, especially since Twitter and Nostr had previously been adding card sometimes. Have I broken things? Hard to tell, because it’s so hit or miss.

But then my faith in the digital world was at least partially restore, because Mastodon had picked up the changes perfectly and created a card for both my latests posts! Props to Mastodon.

All this stuff is way too difficult and inconsistent imho. Isn‘t this supposed to be 2025? #
