I kinda hate activitypub things that give a link and nothing else. @amanda@acarson.wtf is a good example of this. When i see a post from that account its just a bare link. No clickable link card, no idea what its about, etc. I think its likely wordpress or something doing it but i skip all those posts and only pay attention to the @arush@indieweb.social account.

From the “I Should RTFM More Carefully” Dept.:

I screwed up the redirects on my end, so I effectively had them in twice, which, well, caused everything to loop back on itself.

I may change the identifier, but after this point, I have complete control over how things look and what gets published, (favorites, replies and boosts show up correctly while I can still publish my reads and other non-fediverse stuff without it going to the fediverse as just a link).

Thanks for letting me know about the problem, because I then had to sit down and figure out what was going on and I caught the mistake.

In reply to @arush.

Further to my previous embed thoughts, would it be possible for #WordPress to change how its embed features work? I don't think we considered at time of implementation that some would come up with rationalizations to use social media content without asking, and God knows we don't need any more whole news cycles based on tweets or toots or whatevers from egomaniacal nation-state leaders or performative politicians or sociopath billionaires.
