Thanks #[0]​ for doing the new Habla.news guide. I do have a couple of questions

How do you embed links to posts from Habla.news in nostr clients so that the client displays a preview like normal urls?

Also can you embed nostr notes in Habla posts? With a preview?

No url previews seem to be working now, see below image Is it just me, what do other see?

Happy to bring value 💜

Previews aren’t yet widely available. The feature is on the way. Some articles do have a human readable path, but the process is not yet automated. Soon™

Regarding Nostr notes (and other stuff 😉) Habla automatically turns any Nostr-related link into an embed. Other option is writing “nostr:” followed by an event ID - be it a note, an npub, or a naddr.

That said we are still in the early stage and there’s so much on the roadmap, so don’t judge us too strictly 😅 it’s all coming, just needs some time.

Also I recommend utilizing the preview features — one in the top left, right above the composing field (looks like an eye) and one on the right side of the composer dashboard, which lets you toggle between the markdown, Split View and a preview. These features are underestimated 😄

I’ll be releasing a detailed article on Habla features too. Just waiting for a few things to be fixed/implemented.

Thanks #[2]​, that’s briliant. Looking forward to the more detailed article on Habla features. In the meantime have you any advice on embedding or linking Habla posts so they can be read in popular Nostr clients?

At the moment I use https://lnshort.it to produce short links as naddrs in long-form posts are massive. And I add the image to the note manually. That’s the best solution I could come up with so far. Please let me know if you find a more elegant way.

Thanks #[2]​. Is adding Habla link previews to Nostr clients something Habla or Nostr clients need to resolve?

It’s the human readable paths that need to be implemented across the platform first. As far as I understand it is not something super complicated, but takes time given there are a lot of other things to be done under the hood. Things work different on Nostr than they do with traditional centralized platforms and we are really early. Some patience is required 😌
