note that imgur will not serve images in the UK, for whatever that's worth. What we see is this:

Yeah, I'd recommend editing those posts so they're attachments! I know it sucks not being able to paste them directly from the clipboard like you can with Imgur, but it really helps those poor Britons...

(I've attached them below temporarily in anticipation of this.)

Looks like this is based on a quite old version of Previous, since https://github.com/probonopd/previous is referenced in the ReadMe.

But nonetheless interesting. Lets see if they are able to get it fully working.

The tyranny of the GitHub echo chamber is truly upon us. Annoyingly there are much more up-to-date repos out there, though, like itomato's, which was synced just last week.

EDIT: I've posted an issue on apolkosnik's repo, hopefully he takes a look at it. In all probability this is just a case of Claude or Google erratically coughing up the URL with the highest PageRank score. probono is a major GNUstep contributor, so it's no surprise his repo gets extra clout in the eyes of The Machine.
