aaronpkI always thought the browsers didn't want to return the names timezone for the user because it is a privacy violation, the named timezone gives much more of a clue about location
capjamesgInteresting. On reflection I don't technically need the user's timezone, just their UTC offset. But I am unsure if there is an intuitive way to ask for only that information.
capjamesgThe reader runs polling at midnight in a user's timezone and runs once per hour. I either need to update the script to do a check once every 30 mins, or round the minute value.

balintmhey all! i'm playing with the idea of implementing POSSE for my art from my site to fedi by leveraging oembed/opengraph/json-ld rich cards in Mastodon clients. does anyone here have experience with something like this? basically instead of rehosting images as attachments to fedi posts i'm thinking i could post a link and the rich embed would take care of displaying the artwork — assuming there's a way to ensure that the image is full size and
balintm*a reliable way too. i might have to do my own research to see whether at least the most popular clients would behave the way i would expect them to consistently.
[snarfed]ballintm the short answer is, link previews aren't very consistent across the fediverse, and only really show thumbnails at best on Mastodon, and probably most other servers. if you're an artist hoping for a good way to show your art, link previews probably aren't it
balintmlooking at some art related hashtags on mastodon i did run into a few uncropped artworks with a portrait orientation, but they likely look different on other clients

Loqi A link preview is what posts show about one or more embedded links, e.g https://indieweb.org/link_preview
