   @hikerus You _can_ edit the "featured image". Upload an image, then choose "Edit image" in the Wordpress media selection dialogue.

     @hikerus What GNU social does is to embed stuff when link endpoints have oEmbed, OpenGraph or are direct image links
     
     And we, on WordPress, are exposing only the featured image through oEmbed. This is why GS is displaying only the "featured image"
     
     @mmn
     MMN-o ✅⃠ repeated this.

     @hikerus Make wordpress act the way you prefer then. We present the featured image because that is what gets linked explicitly to represent the post. We don't crawl through the post looking for <img> tags.

     @hikerus Have you linked a relevant WordPress post yet that I can look at? Conversation view in Mustard isn't top notch.

     @hikerus We prioritise oEmbed over OpenGraph and there is no image available there: https://social.umeahackerspace.se/url/69800

     Yes, but as I said we prioritise oEmbed. Check the link I provided, which I got from this element: <link rel="alternate" type="application/json+oembed"

     @hikerus Maybe using the "featured image" thing?

     @hikerus The whole point of the "Featured image" thing is that you can have a specific, separate (or composite!) image representing the post, so no attempt at mind reading algorithms should randomly choose one for you.
