# 21:48 [snarfed] do we have guidance on whether/how much to use u-url over fetched url? # 21:48 [snarfed] eg I occasionally hit cases where u-url is flat out wrong # 21:49 [snarfed] theoretically the tradeoff is that sometimes it correctly points to a different URL that should be considered canonical? # 21:49 [snarfed] I'd love to compare, but I don't have a good sense for how often that happens # 22:49 [tantek] [snarfed] consider that clients of Bridgy backfeed depend on the opposite behavior, to consider the parsed u-url (which points to the original) over the source permalink u-url (of the synthetic h-entry on http://brid.gy ) # 22:51 [tantek] in the example in the issue, better to return an error quickly from Bridgy rather than try to do any intelligent "cleanup" [tantek] joined the channel
