   If you run a small #tech business or are in charge of #IT #procurement and using #AWS or #Google #Cloud, join this employee-led action and sign the petition https://www.notechforapartheid.com/#sign .It is asking #Amazon & Google to stop #ProjectNimbus, a 2021 $1.22bn contract to provide cloud technology to the #Israeli government & military, powering violence against #Palestinians in #Gaza. “We embed respect for #humanrights throughout our business”?

     @feditips any idea why the #linkpreview is adding a bit to the #url after the slash, thus breaking it? Like this "https://www.notechforapartheid.com/notechforapartheid.com" when the url in the post doesn't contain anything after the slash?

     That's definitely a bug.

     There is another bug where link previews weren't rendering anchor links (with # in them) at all, and perhaps this new bug is a result of an attempt to correct the anchor text bug?

     You're on mastodon.social so the devs often use it for experimental code which may not work properly. Perhaps this is some of that experimental code?

     @feditips I tried that too, it doesn't work (that's how it is now). @Gargron and #mastodonsocial #devs, any chance you can look into it? #link #bug #linkpreview

     I think I know what the problem is, it's nothing to do with Mastodon.

     The website has set the incorrect value for its metadata.

     It currently says

     <meta property="og:url" content="notechforapartheid.com">

     It should have an https:// before the web address.

     If you can contact the website owners, they are the only ones who can fix this.
