Greetings from the posting factory! Unfortunately, jae’s general Fatigue and Brain Fog continues unabated so we remain at a lower capacity than normal. That said, we’re just hit the ā€œonā€ switch on a feature we’ve been excited about: link previews!

On any post, adding a link on its own line will add a preview! This can be a player for youtube, soundcloud, etc, or just a summary card for other sites! The post preview shows how it’ll look so try it out there!

This only applies to bare URLs! Making a markdown link [like this](https://cohost.org) or including the URL in other text won’t embed it! You can also disable embedding by wrapping it in angle brackets like this: <https://cohost.org>

If you don’t ever want to see embeds, you can fully disable them in the user settings.

That’s the big one this week, but we’ve got other changes too! And we’ve got some example uses of embeds after the read more!

  • deleted comments are no longer included in the displayed comment count
  • deleted comments that no one has replied to are no longer displayed
    • finally, the ā€œ[deleted]ā€ of shame is gone… but only if you’re fast
  • fixed a bug where we were showing the pause button on normal jpegs and such
  • added a horizontal separator before footnote definitions

that’s all for this week! keep reading for some Things We Think Are Cool :host-joy:
