fair

because they look nice

why do we even care about link previews anymore

yes

anyone else’s brain hurt from this convo

it does if you’re desperate

no it doesn’t

it works

…what

i just use regex

true...

but jsdom is heavy

or jsdom if you need a full browser

cheerio is pretty good

wait what’s the best way to parse html for og tags

lol same

gave up after 3 hours

but it’s a pain to set up

i use cloudflare workers

anyone know a good proxy service?

or just don’t scrape so much

or use a proxy

maybe add a delay between requests
