eeveeit is indeed very annoying that looking at a fediverse profile doesn't work without js
cws don't expand (we have detail+summary!) and i think there's some fork or alt software that only shows a blank page
yeah like botsin.space is an empty void and at a glance it seems to be stock mastodon. come on
ok so mastodon 4 just made everything js-only and shows //nothing at all// otherwise. what a humiliating step backwards

@eevee the most annoying part is, that you can't just link-copy the timestamp for a canonical link to a post or profile. You will always have your own instance domain stuck to
@skaverat what... what! this is like halfway to t.co wtf
@eevee some instances patched it out already, but man, it's annoying to deal with... And has absolutely 0 benefit
Dylan McCall@skaverat @eevee Sure there is! It’s difficult to boost / favourite / follow posts if you aren’t on your own instance, and people sometimes open posts in new tabs, expecting that the behaviour will be the same as on primary click. If they end up on another instance, it’s a problem.
It would be better if there was a common uri scheme for all this stuff instead (with one’s home instance registering a protocol handler), but alas…
If I see a post in my timeline, I can already boost and fav from the post itself.
true, opening a profile would make it more annoying, but you can catch a link leftclick in JS and instead of opening the link, show the profile on your own instance like you do now.
