@woozle is it currently possible in #glitchsoc to add autolink support for other protocols than than http(s)? Would be nice if gemini:// links in posts were also clickable. :)

@FiXato That's a really good question, and I don't immediately know the answer!

It's probably not hard to do by mucking with the code, but the question is whether that's a configurable item somewhere.

I'll have to look into it.

@woozle much appreciated :)

Sadly it also looks like it currently isn't possible to create an explicit gemini link via markdown formatting either:

[FiXato's Gem-Port](gemini://fixato.org)

So, I fear it's something I'll have to open a feature request for on Glitch-Soc (or Mastodon-main, but I don't have any hopes for other protocol links to be implemented there...)

@FiXato

Testing HTML: link?

@FiXato That no be good either.

I've left a question in the GlitchSoc Discord; we'll see if anyone answers...

@woozle once again, much appreciated, thanks! :D

@FiXato Someone showed me a test where they did the same HTML markup I did, but it worked for them -- so I've switched to pure HTML for this post, on the theory that this is what makes it work:

code:
<a href="gemini://fixato.org">FiXato link</a>

renders: FiXato link

(after delete & redraft) GNOPE. Maybe I need to update TC...?

@woozle @FiXato testing: FiXato link

@noiob @woozle so, the post on awoo.space has a working link, but as viewed from toot.cat it doesn't show up as a link.

@FiXato @noiob

Yeah. And we're on the same exact version of GlitchSoc, too, so I'm not sure what's going on.

@woozle @noiob I've also tried switch to Vanilla Mastodon flavour as well as different colour schemes, turning off "tag misleading links", and disabling advanced layout, but none of them make a difference in (not) displaying the link either.

I'd have a look at what the API actually returns, but it's almost 2 in the night here, so that'll have to wait till tomorrow. :)
