<c​apjamesg#4492> I think they have come up once or twice.
#
libretown
well either way :) the web revival community is currently my only real internet social group and I am super happy about that. No social media, no Discord, no networks, no messengers, only e-mail, websites, IRC and a feature phone

I actually snacced a Nokia E90 Communicator a while back which is an AWESOME phone.

what is embedded content
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "embedded content" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "embedded content is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[tantek]
embedded content is /embed
#
[tantek]
capjamesg, can you add that The Guardian example and user opt-in to load as an example to the /embed page?
#
capjamesg
Will do!
#
[tantek]
so here's a problem with link previews, how do you edit them (especially in syndicated copies) when they show an unexpected image that you'd rather not seem to be promoting? E.g. https://xoxo.zone/@tantek.com@tantek.com/109821064323462366
#
Loqi
[preview] Taking a closer look at both my syntax and use-cases of footnotes in posts¹ revealed that a post glossary would suffice in many instances. ...
#
[snarfed]
I don't think link previews are editable, or even shown (much less removable) in the native editor
#
[tantek]
I mean besides "don't trust the front page of Wikipedia :P"
#
[tantek]
hey has anyone here considered keeping their projects or to-do lists on their websites in a form that would allow friends (or anyone with IndieAuth sign-in) to upvote things?
#
[tantek]
capjamesg, could you upload that The Guardian screenshot to the wiki and add it to this? https://indieweb.org/embed#The_Guardian
