Prime Video: Fear the Walking Dead - Season 6
In Season 6, scattered to Virginia’s distant settlements, the group struggles to survive apart from one another while trying to hold onto who they are and what they once believed in.app.primevideo.com

I'm a bit confused about how photo privacy works in Friendica. But confused in a good way.
You basically upload photos into your photo collection, which may contain private and public photos. When uploading photos via the post editor for a private post, the photos are set as private, for a public post they are set as public; it doesn't present the separate permissions form of the normal photo uploader. Great.
But here's the mystery: if you forget to set the post to private, then upload the photo, only then switch the post to private, you would expect the photo to be uploaded as public. But somehow Friendica knows what you wanted and protects you: my test shows that such a photo is marked as private anyway!

So this apparently needs being stated as some think it's not obvious and some think especially men may have a different opinion: abortion is a right, abortion is healthcare and in a functioning society everybody has access to abortion care.
Also, men have their part to play in preventing abortions at the source.
But what I don't understand about the current American situation is how when 8 in 10 people there support access to abortion and it's a democracy with 50% of the voters men and 50% women, a policy that is such a war on women can be voted in by a democratic institution, and upheld by a court appointed by democratic institutions. Something is wrong in the way people are represented.

The past will come back to haunt u (and comment on ur parenting abilities)
A teaser for season three of You where the season two cast comments on the recent baby name reveal. Great to see #JennaOrtega promoting #YouNetflix S3. This doesn't mean she'll be in it, after all most other S2 characters in this clip have died already...

To me Twitter's way of handling link previews makes a lot of sense and is the way you expect it to work as a user. From my recollection what Twitter does is:
- Consider the last url-like text for a link preview
- If that doesn't have a twitter card or open graph tags, check the previous url, etc
- If the previewed url text is the last text of the post, don't show that text
- If the post contains a photo or video attachment, don't show a link preview at all, only show the media
I think the way posts are presented on the #fediverse could be improved by using these rules. With one extra addition:
- If an attachment is also present within the post (activitypub posts are html, so that is quite possible), don't show the attachment at the end of the post.
The question whether the sending or receiving server should resolve the link to load the preview is solved by the fourth rule. Most platforms load the preview themselves upon receiving a post, but if a sending server includes it anyway, that rule causes the receiver to skip that step.

Picking up Schmigadoon! again. I had fallen out of the weekly habit of watching these episodes on Apple TV+ due to my holiday and not being home. But I can't let Dove Cameron content be out there without watching it, can I? It's a very fun series too.

This was not obvious to me, but you can add descriptive text to images in a #Friendica post. When you click the "image" button and select or upload an image, the bbcode for the image is inserted into your post editor. This has a [url] tag for the link to the full image and a [img] tag for the preview image.
It turns out that anything you type between these opening and closing [img] and [/img] tags will be rendered as descriptive text on the image. Adding an alt= or title= attribute doesn't seem to work however.
Example:
[url=https://friendica.gidikroon.eu/photo/1929641322612bfa9fd0155603878394-0.jpg][img=https://friendica.gidikroon.eu/photo/1929641322612bfa9fd0155603878394-1.jpg]This will be the descriptive text of the image[/img][/url]
There is going to be an announcement tomorrow related to You, the Netflix tv series. We already know that a season three has been filmed and should soon get a release date. They are now saying there's going to be a reveal of the name of Love and Joe's baby, but I hope we will learn more than that.
Season two introduced the character of Ellie, played by Jenna Ortega, and lots of people including me are hoping Ellie (and Jenna) are going to be a major part of this new season. It does however seem unlikely.

Ah, the Friendica experience...
Image description: a post received on the top of my timeline, which indicates that it was posted 4 years ago. But it also says it was edited 5 days ago. But listed as well is that it was received 22 minutes ago...
You see this kind of thing a lot on Friendica. But it is a bit unfair to make fun of it. At least here they indicate these different times; on other platforms you just have to guess why you're seeing a post on top of your timeline...
Apologies for the Facebook link.
People should not comment on another's appearance, especially not negatively, especially not to someone so young. Bella Gantt is very talented and that is the only thing that should be mentioned. And not bother her.
