So here comes a feature request for @gluon that I hope @vincent implements. When replying to someone, have the option to show the full original post text below my reply. When replying to people I usually tend to look at the original text more than once to help me write a clear reply, an... micro.danielsantos.org

@danielsantos @vincent I love this idea. Would also be great to have a clear list of conversation participants that can be (de)selected.

@canion @vincent I second that, too. It would be awesome!

@danielsantos I'm not sure why your mentions of @gluon and @vincent didn't get turned into links. 🤔 The conversation does tag Vincent, though, so that should summon him. 🧞‍♂️

@jean @danielsantos funny enough, I got a mention via Mastodon. I think, because this is a longer post, it didn’t do the usual trick of turning links to links… instead favouring the article link.

@jean thanks for the heads up. I don’t know either. Funny thing is I’m using @gluon to type my posts as usual, and based on your comment, I’ve just checked my post on web, and both mentions, including the one @vincent, are linked there…

@vincent @jean Did you receive my latest mentions? If you didn’t I’m worried it could be something on my side, even though if it is, I’m clueless about…

@danielsantos yeah, they all came through.

Thanks @vincent! I’m sorry for the incidental tagging flood :)

@vincent @danielsantos Vincent, would you have seen the mentions in the original post which are in plain text for reasons I don’t know?

@jean I have noticed that if a post is > 280 characters, the @ mention doesn't show a link on the timeline. This is an Mb thing, I think. On the actual blog, it is shown as a hyperlink though. @vincent @danielsantos

@jean I was notified via Mastodon, because it was also cross-posted to social.lol, and it automatically linked to me somehow… which trigger a notification from my server @danielsantos

@pratik it would be nice if a webmention could be posted if it’s a longer post. Cc @jean @manton

@danielsantos no, all good. It’s good to test the Gluon push server like this.

@vincent When posts are truncated after 280 characters on the Mb timeline, it strips away the formatting on the characters that do show up. I wish it were not that way (not sure technically how possible that is). Also, yeah, if you mention someone after those 280 characters, they get notified. I have missed a few that way and people have wondered why I haven't commented or responded.

@pratik yeah, so if it’s a long post it treats it that way and doesn’t attempt to style or add links to the “text”. However it should be able to send a webmention somehow when it links to someone in the post itself. Needs investigating what’s possible. I’ll put it on the list 🤣😋

@vincent I did hear about "the list" yesterday 😆 but believe it or not, I wasn't the one making most of the feature requests in the group that met. @manton can confirm. I'm not naming names though.

@manton @pratik @vincent My money's on @jean bringing the list.

@pratik That would be ME! ME ! ME !
