  1. Yeah, but it seems they are just a different embed client.
  2. It looks like that still uses hosted media and everything from Twitter servers it just bypasses the embed and directly publishes the resource. If it gets deleted from Twitter or put behind paywall/throttle it still breaks.
  3. What is fixupx?
  4. I've discovered the fastest way in a browser is just to go to the surlyx link and copy the generated image URL and paste it in. Doesn't work if you copy from app, but it's great if you use browser.
  5. If you want a demo of how much higher performance it is go here: Its a feed of all generated embeds chronologically 25 at a time. Imagine how long 25 tweets would take to load. Its almost 2 orders of magnitude faster. https://surlyx.com/feed
  6. Correct the first load for the screenshot takes close to 3s because Twitter sucks embedding after it exists already is instant.
  7. Dude believe it or not, making a stand against Nazi owned anything is apolitical. Also I've bitched about Twitter embeds for years, it's well documented as a huge issue for site performance.
  8. Not what happened.
  9. Its intentional not to link to the X post, its also not a half fix, it allows for the recruiting board where recruits commit etc to continue and be significantly higher performance and allows for people who also have Twitter blocked to be able to see the posts that were embedded. This also allows for deleted posts to stick around, and it allows for us to control everything about the media embed. So it's not half assed at all, it's just getting away from the platform in a way that works for the community until recruits also leave.
  10. Its only on the bottom and right. I want it all around and rounded.
  11. I'm gonna make it bigger and rounder and maybe add the semi transparent surly watermark.
  12. alright we are live. I'm gonna make some improvements over time, but this should work for now, it's easy enough!
  13. works pretty good takes about 3 seconds on first embed, subsequent embeds are instant. am gonna fix the background artifacts and get the font right
  14. ok it should work now.
  15. I just got it working, if you paste it now it won't work but if you immediately paste it again it will. trying to get it to go on first pass.
  16. Its down right now figuring out oembed and we are off to the races. I have it doing it correctly but it's just not behaving right debugging now.
  17. you gotta do it in the url bar before copy/paste otherwise it will paste as the x.com link. https://surlyx.com/Horns247/status/1883540429976805570?t=Wq1wng1h22Oo2JDTxaNb8A&s=19
  18. there's a feed you can pull from generated images already now: surlyx.com/feed working on oembed now.
  19. All the what ifs are final with Quinn. he didn't go to the ncg and he won 2 CFP games that were introduced because of the 12 team playoff, but the original 4 team playoff section is still 0-2. Texas won a lot of games while he was here, especially with their incredibly soft schedules in an atrocious big xii final year and arguably the easiest and weakest SEC schedule + team strength combo in years. Texas never won the biggest games on the big stage with him at the helm. Georgia x2, losing to OU on the way out of the big xii, etc. what are his statement wins? Punking 2 OU teams that were warmed over dogshit? His TAMU win in CS? His Big XII championship against a shitty OSU? His night win in Tuscaloosa? His win at the big house? ASU to stay alive after blowing it? Clemson? I mean you look at it and you see a bunch of good stuff, but nothing particularly great or consistent. A lot of those games weren't won because it was Quinn mania. Theres players that take over the personality and feel of a game and Quinn just never seemed to do that. Sam did that a lot, with a much shittier team, coach and harder conference/more parity. colt undeniably did this. vince was the entire soul of the team.
  20. Surlyx is live. You can put surly in front if any x post and it'll take you to a page with a screenshot you can copy or download. Next step is to just have it embed automatically when pasted in here. So any https://x.com/user/status/12345678 URL can be https://surlyx.com/user/status/12345678 Please test it out and see if it works
  21. Surlyx service is up. You can type surly in front of any X URL and it'll auto screenshot it for you so you can copy it or save it and put it here. I'm working on making it an oembed resource so you can just put a surlyx link here and it'll just put in a picture. Please try it out.
  22. surlyx is live, please try it out and let me know what you want changed.
