Bookmarked Ideas for improving metaformats parsing by Anthony Ciccarello.

Most of IndieBlocks’ “h-cite” blocks use some kind of fallback (i.e., the author, if any, and title tags) for remote pages that don’t support microformats. Some good ideas here on taking this just a bit further.

    Its “link preview cards,” on the other hand, simply always use the title element’s content, even when microformats are present.

    @jan Probably worth noting that … well, no, this should go in the documentation.

    After you type or paste in the URL you’re replying to, or bookmarking, and so on, you remove focus from the input field or hit “Enter,” it’ll pick up this title and author information, right?

    But then you can choose to still override it.

    If you remove the title altogether, it’ll be replaced by the URL. Also, IndieWeb-style notes often don’t have a “true” title, so it may be intentional if the field remains blank

(What it doesn’t do, at least not directly, is Activity Streams. And some more things.)

    • In reply to https://hacdias.com/2021/12/04/aperture-doesnt-fetch. I _have_ come across quite a few quirks, which I try to address in my “fork.” (I’d happily create a test account for you over at https://fstop.cloud. That said, Micropub support is still in its infancy. Microsub should [mostly] work, though, so you could [hopefully] still use it with your client […]
