#previewcards — Public Fediverse posts

Filed a bug: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/35813

Which is also a test for the patch ;)

#server #asca #mastodon #gdpr #PreviewCards

And from there, I delete all #PreviewCards in #mastodon by using these commands:

1. docker compose exec web bash
2. RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails console
And then I run this in the console: PreviewCard.destroy_all

This will run for a while but it should remove all stored preview cards from my mastodon server, for all posts.
And it worked. Just climb back up to my prompt by punching in “exit” until I am back home, and that issue has been fixed as well. #server #asca #mastodon #gdpr

Y'all ready for the next new "feature" our boy #Gargron has decided #Mastodon simply *must* have?

How about #HoverCards?

Currently for the web UI only, this will be like those delightful #PreviewCards that appear in posts with links out to mainstream web sites, but Hover Cards will pop up a preview of the user's profile if you hover your mouse over the user name in posts

Still a few bugs to be worked out, but this is an active Pull Request, so just you wait!

Whee!

ADMINISTRIVIA: Time for my periodic ask. For some reason, links to wist.info are not generating #PreviewCards here on #Mastodon (though they do in Twitter, FB, diaspora*, etc., and they test clean on various #OpenGraph testing sites). E.g., https://wist.info/euripides/60428/ .

Since such title cards would include title info, that would be helpful for readers here.

Anyone know anyone who might have a clue as to what's not quite right?

Appreciate any boost you can give.
