@taylorlorenz the link previews thing is complicated because retrieving the data for them is decentralized, meaning each instance (and sometimes, each *app*!) is hitting the website for the preview info. It’s often been omitted because it can knock small websites offline just dealing with serving previews when a popular user shares a link.
@taylorlorenz As for QTs, let’s find you another fediverse tool that supports them; you can almost certainly import your followers there if it offers the features that mastodon won’t.
@anildash wouldn't qt implementation be more a client side thing though?
@grumpasaurus @anildash It could probably be implemented either client side or in a fediverse server. Client side might create fewer issues with compatibility.
