Web Development

This blog's cross-posting to Bluesky, Mastodon, and LinkedIn used to only fire as a side effect of a successful Vercel deploy, which meant a social post could never exist without a brand new article behind it. I pulled the two apart into an independent queue, and found neither LinkedIn nor Bluesky actually auto-fetch a link's image the way the compose box makes you assume.

A reader asked me to add an RSS feed to this blog. With Next.js App Router, the whole thing is about fifty lines of code and zero new dependencies - the framework handles more than you might expect.
