Oh, whoops, I actually lost track of getting this article updated. It still needs to be done, so if you wanted to look at it and update the content as necessary, I believe that's still on the agenda! https://fedoramagazine.org/wp-admin/post.php?post=1771=edit I know there's some magic to

Use of Link shorteners on Twitter

Hi all, Just wondering what people think about not using any link shorteners on the official Fedora twitter feed. Twitter actually passes all links in tweets through their own t.co/ link shortener, so using another one is just (IMHO) unnecessarily obfuscating the link from our followers on

More record breaking

I thought it was worth pointing out that once again we broke more publishing records thanks to outstanding contributions and collaboration on Fedora Magazine. Our week Mon Nov 02 - Sun Nov 08 is now our best week ever -- 121,311 views, versus 106,470 hits the week of Fedora 22 release. Nicely

Re: Use of Link shorteners on Twitter

Yes, I'm aware that it is passed through t.co. If it counts the links as the same amount of characters, we might still want to keep the shortened URLs for aesthetics, as long links don't look very good on mobile. Unless you have a specific objection to using a shortener, I'm assuming. On Tue,

Re: Use of Link shorteners on Twitter

There is one reason for using ow.ly URL shortener and that is it allows the person posting via hootsuite to track engagement with a post. I would rather see a URL shortener that is fedora branded being used if possible. On Tue, Nov 10, 2015, 8:02 PM Ryan Lerch wrote: > On

Hi Ryan, I think the use of a link shortener is adequate for Twitter. This is because they have a character limit, and using a shortener greatly helps increase the amount of text you can have in a tweet. Twitter counts your link's characters even though it passes it through its own link gateway.
