@ricci I've noticed odd behavior around link previews. Sometimes they will show in the feed but not on all posts.Opening the post always shows the preview and then it still displays going back to the feed.

@ricci This FediTips page from January 2024 says that each server generates the link preview:https://fedi.tips/how-do-i-get-a-link-preview-to-appear-in-my-post-on-mastodon/It says that different settings and/or software versions on the server can result in different behaviors.Interesting conversation on a linked GitHub issue:https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/20188

@ricci Thanks again for pointing out there was a Museum of Illusion near us. We went down to Dallas to visit and the whole family enjoyed it.

@ricci The Dallas upside down room was a gym instead of a diner. But I suspect most of it is very similar.

@jaystephens Yes it can, hope it is really more of the former for you.For me, I often find myself slipping into the later thinking because it is what I grew up under. Our eldest (17) is usually very patient with me when I belatedly realize I'm in the wrong and apologize. Hopefully you don't have as many learned bad behaviors to avoid using in the moment.

@futurebird Thanks for bringing up money donations.Our local food pantry sent out very good messaging in early October about: It's better to give money because the recipient knows better what they need.I had to talk myself out of an "ingrained from a young age" mentality of: But they might spend it on "bad" things!(Heard lots of sermons about helping the less fortunate but usually only in a VERY controlled way.)When I catch myself thinking in that crappy way I shake it off and do better

@ricci Agreed.Then the wording encouraging removing the spouse as an account manager is also bad.

@stux As an American I'm a solid NO.Please stay away so you don't come to possible harm here.And you should spend you time and money in countries that don't cause harm and chaos in the world.

@futurebird HahMy teens and their D&D groups get up to all other kinds of shenanigans but so far I don't think they've tried seduction. (But they could just omit that when relating the most recent campaign highlights.)

@ricci I feel ya. Went to a Madilyn Mei concert two weeks ago with our younger teen and (as I expected) I was probably in the top decile.However, I was shocked back in September when I saw Mitski and well over half of the attendees looked to be under 18. Afterwards our older teen was teasing me for not knowing she has a cult following among teens. I don't blame them, Mitski's music is awesome.
