  • I think it’s just a desire to indicate some uncertainty about something (like - I’m not an expert, my opinion on whatever could change with time or new information). A full stop seems arrogant somehow.

    I realise it’s not a good impulse and mostly resist. Mostly …

    (that last one’s nothing to do with the above reasoning, it’s just a line from Aliens that’s stuck in my head).


















  • Yeah - I think anything the UI is doing, it’s getting the info from the API, so the poster would’ve had to use the ‘cross-post’ feature. There are some apps (e.g. Voyager) that try to wrangle cross-posts by title or URL, but title-matching can give false postives, and URL-matching usually assumes that one link hasn’t picked up some cruft, and it can’t do much for uploaded images if the poster didn’t cross-post (because it’ll be 2 different files with different URLs)
