       OK, one more quick hack to the Journal feed.

       Relative paths for images are a problem. Maybe they actually aren't for many modern feed readers. But they ARE if I want Micro.blog to crosspost correctly.

       [Found this hack to use the Liquid `replace` filter](https://bdunagan.com/2021/10/29/jekyll-tip-absolute-urls-for-links-and-images-in-rss-feed/) to look for src tags and then add in the full path to your site.

       I'll test it tomorrow by posting an image. Time for bed!

       -
       - [ ] Journal feed modification to truncate and include link back to journal post. Will Microblog respect 500 characters?

       - [ ] Journal feed modifications

       	- Maybe not? I think things are coming through OK

     

       11
       11
        
       	- I should consider linking back to the actual journal entry. Hmm, or maybe appending a hashtag like `BMCJournal` for context

     

       12
       12
        
       	- could also do tags-as-hashtags and append them

     

       13
       13
        
       	- Maybe: do something special if link exists

     

       14
       14
       +
       	- Figure out how to make sure that full path image links are included

     

       14
       15
        
       - [ ] Update front page to have recent journal entries. 

     

       15
       16
        
       - [x] Display “via” frontmatter [[via]]

     

       16
       17
        
       - [x] Turn off linking out to notes
