@ivory I’ve seen this a couple times recently. Tapping on a quoted Mastodon post throws up this error, but if I tap Open In Browser, it loads fine (in the embedded browser inside Ivory). Example post for which it happened just now: https://hachyderm.io/@lexfri/113078916383621592

@ivory Feature request. Have “Translate" in the right-click context menu as well (i.e. as well as under the gear icon). Something I use very rarely, so I don't commit to memory where to find it, and am always surprised that it's not in the context menu, which I invariably try first. 😂

@ivory Is this you, or the Mastodon software itself, that is resulting in a different language under the YouTube URL shortener preview card? (Presumably because .be is Belgium?). If it's Ivory, can you make a special case exception for youtu.be? Assuming of course, you have a means to determine the preferred locale of the app, because for certain users German *is* the correct choice! 😂

How is this post in my home timeline?! I don’t follow this account. It seems it wasn’t boosted. It doesn’t contain a hashtag at all (i.e. that I may be following). It wasn’t edited (to remove hashtags, eg). This account has 0 followers and 0 follows. How did they force this post into my TL? This is concerning!

EDIT: as pointed out by @benroyce (thanks Ben!), there ARE hashtags in this post, it’s just my client (Ivory) that for some reason doesn’t show them.

Hahahahahahaha. Indeed!

@ivory This isn't a bugreport, per se. Perhaps a question. Or a suggestion for consideration only.

As you can see, there are 2 seemingly identical trending News links. Clicking them, they go to the same url, except for querystring args.

Suggestion: strip widely-known tracking args to de-dup links in the Explore page. If, once known-tracking args are stripped, there are still different qs args left which results in dups, then so be it.
