Bundle of Holding are currently not offering one, not offering two, not even offering three… but offering FOUR bundles of GURPS tabletop roleplaying bundles courtesy of Steve Jackson Games… and that’s just the start of the GURPS 4E Week promotion!

Let’s see how cross-posting from Mastodon through Piefed looks

Edit: fix the title

    First line becomes the title, so keep that in mind. Your title looks atrociously clickbaity now (“Bundle of Holding are currently not offering one, not offering two, not even offering three”), which might explain the downvote I see.

      that’s interesting. The same account on mastodon said our titles were click baity too. i don’t know what to think - we want you to click on them? they’re not misleading? You click on them, you read more about exactly what the headline says? I am loathe to put out headlines like ‘company A release new product on Date’ but if piefed isn’t going to support titles then there’s not much we can do

      Yeah. And I’m not sure if putting the link to the source wouldn’t be better

      But from technical point of view it seems to be working. I just need to check somewhere how it looks back on Mastodon. I think it would be best if it was a boost of original toot

      Thanks for sharing your thoughts 👍

        INeedMana Mastodon continues to not play nice with other platforms. I’ve heard they’re going try to support more message types in the future, but who knows what they mean by that, or when that will be.

        I also get inconsistent results and formatting from my NodeBB server.

        From where I’m sitting, the link preview shows what the post is about, and the “clickbait” nature of the title is Mastodon’s fault and problem. Anyone who’s interested will click through and probably not notice the awkward title. Those who aren’t might put up a weird stink, but they’re not the audience for the post anyway, so *shrug*.

          This time it’s mostly about how piefed behaves. The feature to follow Mastodon accounts is new and I’m exploring what, how, looks where
