@Alfred why do my outbound links not show an image preview here?

@mcfate @Alfred do you mean after the fact not instantly? I'm testing my site and didn't know if it was being sanitized or not?

@bfgreen @Alfred

I mean we load them when someone interacts with a posting, or when a timer of a couple of minutes goes off.

We don't "sanitize" third-party web sites.

We DO ban entire counties, but if you were IN one of them, you wouldn't be HERE at ALL, you'd never get past the firewall.

@mcfate thank you, at least I know that my site meta tags are not the issue. Lack of anyone seeing or clicking on my nonsense is the real reason ;-)

@bfgreen

Unless you're somehow hosting your images on a CDN in someplace like Iran or North Korea, I wouldn't worry about it.

Not really sure what <meta> elements you imagine might cause concern, but it's your site.

@mcfate It's the tag <meta property="og:image" content="briangreen.net/images/soda_bre"> - supposed to load the image as a preview to a shared link, like here briangreen.net/soda_bread.html
