I’ve been encountering an increasing number of links which “may not available on your instance”, even for posts which I know are available on my instance.
Here is a absurdly silly example where I used a remote link to one of my own posts. It can’t be unavailable on my instance, because I made the post! :)
Hey!
Thanks for reporting this. Could you also make a GitHub issue on this with some reproducible steps so that I can troubleshoot it? (e.g., the instance you’re on, the link you tap on that causes the issue, etc.)
Is the “my arse” really necessary in this context?
My intended use in this context was to humourously “express disbelief in what was just said”, in reference to the pop-up error message. If that particular phrase is too vulgar, I can remove it.
Seemed more aggressive than humorous to me, and it seems like you are getting downvoted (not me) so maybe the message doesn’t get through
FWIW, I think this phrasing is understood differently depending on region. In the UK, and especially the northern counties in England, this is mostly understood to be a humorous exclamation of disbelief rather than anything aggressive.
Perhaps you are right; I’ll remove it.
Original title for posteriorty
“not available on your instance”, my arse
May your arse never be forgotten.
Happens very much to me, too. I’m on the latest stable build. But this has been happening for quite some time. Most of the instances are federated and I can follow these links via the web ui, but the app refuses to load them
