Hive Social turns off servers after researchers warn hackers can access all data - https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2022/12/hive-social-turns-off-servers-after-researchers-warn-hackers-can-access-all-data/
@lauren Leela will make you pay for that.
@shuttersparks Naw, she'd have me put her photo on everything if she could.
@lauren I mean putting her behind a content warning. Tsk tsk tsk
@shuttersparks I don't use content warnings. She's not behind one here, nor at another site I just checked. So it's likely something on your end.
@lauren Scanning down I see your post of 14 minutes ago, Twitter tries to "bribe" has her photo behind a "Not available" indicator with the photo fuzzed out. So, actually it's a "Not Available" rather than a content warning. (They look the same) A glitch, apparently. If I click on it then a new window opens with the correct photo.
@shuttersparks There's a lot of strange stuff. I see that sometimes and the images eventually show up. Lots of sites are overloaded. I also see that some ways some users try to embed videos never show up here correctly, just a black player with controls that don't do anything. But YT videos mentioned by URL seem to usually play OK.
@lauren @shuttersparks I’ve had trouble getting my YouTube links to “embedify” in Mastodon posts. No clue what’s going wrong.
@matt @shuttersparks At least for my server I just place them inline, e.g.:
Here's the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=...
and they've automatically embedded in the post successfully (as far as I know, anyway).
@shuttersparks @matt Of course. Because that's not a full YT URL, just an example of where to put the URL in a post. A full URL would have the video ID after the equal sign. If you put a full YT URL where I showed that example, it will embed properly. At least they do for me.
@shuttersparks @matt I'm really not into those games.
