Given what it's gonna do to the world economy when the bubble will burst I think it's better if we drop all references to intelligence and just start calling it subprime computing

If you're using Tusky, and a post contains a link to another Fediverse post, and you tap the link, Tusky figures out it's a Fediverse post and displays the post within the client instead of sending you to the website. If you're using Mastodon Ruby this does not happen. You have to do this awkward thing of copying the link and then pasting it into the search box and hitting return.

Maybe I should have used Mastodon Sapphire.

@mcc unfortunately you can't delay opening a link on the web, if we were to implement the same logic it would fail awkwardly for everything that is not a resolvable fediverse link

@Claire oh, that makes sense. is this person just confused then, though? https://mastodon.catgirl.cloud/@emmy/116291559075870458

@[email protected] Or a Mastodon glitch-soc instance. Both links open inside the web UI for me.

@mcc possibly! There's nothing in glitch to open links to posts on the same server's WebUI anyway

@Claire a thing that is extremely funny to me is that fediverse would (IMO) strongly benefit from a dedicated URL scheme, but fediverse doesn't have this, but atproto DOES have this, but bluesky doesn't USE or in any way meaningfully support the URL scheme that atproto has, and also the URL scheme atproto uses is literally incompatible with the specs for either a WhatWG URL or IETF URI.

@mcc there are attempts but basically i think on web browsers the experience of handling custom URL schemes is abysmal (things may have changed since last time i had a look)
