@mangeurdenuage How did you get a video preview to show in the timeline?
@mangeurdenuage @xrevan86 hmm, I'd love to find out. Would be nice to have on this instance im hosting here.
@mangeurdenuage I could see the advantage for someone on a very limited machine. Though I'm not sure it has a huge advantage for most people. In fact the lack of some of the extras JS can provide could be a turn off.
@mangeurdenuage Thats fair, but thats easily solved by providing a no js theme as an option I'd think, no?
@mangeurdenuage very cool
@xrevan86 @mangeurdenuage hmm so you just post the link and the preview should automatically show up for you?
@xrevan86 @mangeurdenuage So im going to add a link to a youtube video of mine here, lets see if it shows a preview?
@xrevan86 @mangeurdenuage hmm I dont see a preview do you? did I miss a step?
@mangeurdenuage Where is the source for your instance hosted? Do you know if your working off a modified version of the server maybe?
@mangeurdenuage @maiyannah Ahh thanks, I just assumed it was mastodon. Perhaps that is why
@mangeurdenuage I am aware, I just didnt think about it at the time. Though I could swear mastodon is older than that, I thought i remember seeing it more than a year ago.
@mangeurdenuage Well regardless I have no doubt GS is older. With that said I'd love to see a matrix of features that compare the various ActivityPub compliant software. I am running Mastodon for my instance purely because I liked the expiernce the most.
@mangeurdenuage @lain I'm familiar with that as well. I tried out both before deciding to run Mastodon as my instance.
I'm not the admin of this instance nor have the knowledge to do it maybe @xrevan86 can help ?
