I mainly use Embark in a way similar to right-clicking to bring up a context menu. To discover possible things to do with the object at point.

    Embark, "Emacs Mini-Buffer Actions Rooted in Keymaps", https://github.com/oantolin/embark

    I had heard the name but didn't know what it was.

    That reads a bit like vim command mode
    Is it meant to pretty much to do same?
    (trying to not say 'emulate' in this foreign community as a vim user ;⁠-⁠) )

    I think it's supposed to guess what command you want from context, but I didn't check carefully.

    Yeah, it seems cool

    Just really reminded me of vim command mode and still not sure, if it's kinda the same thing or if I'm completely off

    Indeed, but at least from piefed social that is what I posted. Are you not seeing that?

    Interesting, what client is that? It displays properly in the latest mastodon web client (in addition to piefed.social). I checked in ActivityPubExplorer and it seems that the name is the title content is empty and the link is included as an attachment property.

    Your client seems to display the name content and the the id property as the link.
