Gregory's ServerFunny thing: my Toot got crossposted to Twitter, so it seems to be a specific block for mastodon.social (and maybe other instances too?)

@ainmosni Can confirm: also gets refused via API. https://social.wildeboer.net/@jwildeboer/108413610575315993

hm... never had a problem. Maybe your link is flagged because it is generic? Also the the algorithm may have been "trained" by dislikes on the platform to be sceptical about certain URLs and if it is the generic one you may fall beyond the threshold twitter has defined... I also never just link to the instance itself but generally have a specific link to a profile or some such thing. Care to try that as well?
Jan Wildeboer π·:krulorange:
@dirkprimbs @ainmosni Sure. A link to a specific toot on mastodon.social works. A link to the site itself is considered harmful.
Dirk Primbs
That kinda hardens my suspicion. I'd simply link specifically then, e.g. with https://mastodon.social/about

@dirkprimbs @ainmosni No. Twitter needs to fix their broken algorithm :)

Definitely. |
@jwildeboer Or that check is only done on the frontend and not server side?
