The link is to podcast.james.network. Why would I expect it to be something other than a podcast?
The in-body link is to the podcast, but the post itself is a link to discuss.james.network which is a transcription of the guide
You should explain that in the post body, not expect someone to click a link that says “podcast” in hope of getting a non-podcast.
I dunno if you’re trolling me or if your UI just looks different but
Having the link at the top of the post like this, because it’s embedded into the actual post instead of the body like the second link, makes it pretty clear to me that that’s a discussion link and not a podcast link
I see roughly the same thing:
Your post says there is a podcast at [url] and that you are working on a guide as a companion to it, but it doesn’t say anything about where the guide is or whether any of it is online yet at all. Ok, I see now that the link url is discuss.james.network which is a different domain than the podcast, but that is still not much help. If that’s where the guide is, you should say so. I’d expect to see a discussion forum on a domain like that, not a podcast transcript.
Really, though you should just include the guide in the post. Otherwise you’re just promoting your podcast and discussion site.
Lemmy is a link aggregator, this guy posted a link to his website and a brief (albeit lacking, I will agree with you there) description of what the links were. I don’t see any issue promoting free content in the forms of links on a link aggregator.
I also think there’s sort of a social agreement that if you’re going to make a comment about a post that exists purely as a link to elsewhere, you should probably click the link so that you know what is being discussed instead of what we’re doing, discussing the link itself lol.
