OP, it looks like you’re missing a link. Does this look right?
@pingveno I do not understand why is it not posted. Yes, that’s the one, and it shows on my end as well. Let’s see if it works if I edit up the post
Edit: wow, I only had the preview window here on Friendica, with no link. I had to delete the preview and then paste the link as plain text. Hopefully this should work on your end as well…
It links in the body, but not the URL field. Perhaps it’s a mismatch between how Lemmy and Friendica represent posts?
@pingveno Yea, it seems so. Somehow all my links seem to appear in the body (if they appear, previously it did not appear in the body either, as you’ve seen)
Well, it works well enough being in the body. Maybe not ideal, but at least people know what you’re referencing. :)
@pingveno Indeed. It is frustrating when that does not appear there either 😁 it’s the first time it happened. I’d love the federation between the various platforms to be more seamless.
ActivityPub is pretty awesome, but when you’re trying to tie together such disparate formats there can be an impedance mismatch.
@pingveno Indeed. There are dozens of projects, and people expect them all to work seamlessly as advertised. Yet there are various caveats and limitations, and expectations from one service to another, and no one quite talks about it. For example, you cannot see posts having titles on Mastodon. The title is rendered as the content (like a caption), while you get the link to the actual post instead of showing you the content there. And you get no hint about it 😁
Thanks for the heads-up anyway, I think I will also check other limitations for posting between various platforms 😁
