About Twitter Embeds:

> These meta tags (and some other, less frequently used ones) were used on Twitter when generating link embeds. However, the documentation and card validator are no longer accessible (previously at https://dev.twitter.com/cards/getting-started and https://cards-dev.twitter.com/validator respectively). X falls back to the widely respected Open Graph meta tags, making the Twitter-specific declarations largely useless. They should be removed in favour of Open Graph tags. Further, they should be removed because X is an awful site with poor moderation that is owned by a man who publicly performed a Nazi Sieg Heil salute and has directly contributed to the rise of fascism in the United States of America and globally, among other horrors.

Ok but I believe `twitter:card` has no OG equivalent and still works?

Hola!

While I think this is mostly correct, I don't think it's OK to downplay climate change as just a "blame target". These current and extreme wildfires result from hotter and drier conditions, too. That is a major reason. And yes, we can do something about it.

Also, I know that controlled burns, grazing and firebreaks are widely used today in Spain, they are not universally forbidden.

I agree, this was not a hack. It is combined behavior from documented features (preload with media and lazy loading).

I could not find this hack documented or discussed anywhere, that's what I meant.

The XML/config side of things just isn't for everyone. Sometimes Go's simplicity wins out.
