I use it.. I don't agree to ads so I don't get coins. which is great because I don't want coins, I just want no ads.

I think full federated auth across servers is a much more difficult problem - it'd be nice but outside the scope of this request!

Ya if it’s not federated already, I’m thinking the link will just remain as-is?

yeah that seems entirely reasonable. it'll still be a big improvement in most cases. also even if it only happens as it federates initially it'll probably still catch many cases. is it possible to do a follow-up check only for links that weren't updated the first time? if you could store a cool-off and maximum number of tries that would probably keep it light and as functional as possible.

when serving posts with un-processed links that haven't been updated, and it hasn't been checked in the last 3 hours, re-check for a federated article and update. do this for up to 24 hours after the comment is posted, after that just give up? that gives it a few opportunities but doesn't continue to waste resources if it's unlikely the link will be resolved.

I'm not sure if it's easy to add columns to track those attempts though.

From what i've read, bonsai usually need to be outdoor and get some direct sunlight.

I do believe ficus is a good beginner bonsai and will be more forgiving, however!

oh that's awesome! yeah i can see it being an issue especially if that post isn't already federated. would be a great quality of life improvement though.

ok sounds like it's not a feature - the link format i suggested includes both the instance ID and the instance url, so it would be possible for your home server to use that to preprocess to a useable link. I wonder if there's a suggestions box 🙂

ahhh that makes sense. i was remembering microsoft getting broken up/fined and wondered how an "everything company" could possibly avoid that. turns out you have to have a monopoly to start with, which might have been an issue before he tanked twitter. so i guess genius move, 5d chess etc

I think my home instance blocks porn-only instances, which is fine with me. I can open an account on the porn instance if I want, it's not the same kind of browsing.
