@prologic@twtxt.net @lucidiot@tilde.town @movq@www.uninformativ.de So, apparently yarn is transforming hashtags into search urls, ob the feed. This makes things unreadable and seems totally unnecessary. Shouldn’t this be a client feature? Why should my feed have a link to a search engine instead of a hashtag? And why can’t the client (when it is a visual client like goryon or the web) react to hashtags (all of them) by linking to a search interface? Am I missing something?
@marado@twtxt.net Hold up… Rewriting #hashtags was abolished long ago… Where are you seeing this? 😳

Which is what I expect. Whoooah wait up… wtf?! 😢 @xuu@txt.sour.is I thought we nuked this shit years ago?! 🤦♂️
Actually… I don’t get it… Did we say we’d remove this shit and just didn’t do it for some stupid ass reason?! 🤦♂️ I can’t find any evidence in any of the codebases where we’ve gone and done this 😳
@xuu @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org help 😅
@marado@twtxt.net I’m so sorry, after poking around a fair bit, I’ve realised. We intended to update the extension and remove the code/behaviour ages ago, but we just haven’t gotten around to it 🤦♂️ – Could I ask either @movq@www.uninformativ.de or @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org to update the spec whilst I fix this goddamn code? (PR incoming)
@movq@www.uninformativ.de @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org @prologic@twtxt.net As long as it doesn’t end forgotten, there’s really no rush! It’s not like @lucidot is going to revert their decision with this change…
@marado@twtxt.net Still I feel bad now 😢 Anyway, here’s the PR so far… Just need to work out why this test is failing and blowing up in my face 🤔 https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/go-lextwt/pulls/9
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh! You are so right! 😅 Why didn’t we kill that at the same time too 🤣
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Do you mind updating the spec while @xuu and I fix the code? 🙏
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Thank you! 🙏
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Ahh crap, yeah I never setup CD for it 🤦♂️ – Might one day redo the site entirely using zs 🤔
@marado@twtxt.net This has been fixed now as you can see in https://twtxt.net/conv/cbbmijq – Thanks for reporting 🙏
