I've managed to get a basic bot posting to #Threads.
Only problem is, the #OpenGraphProtocol images aren't being picked up.

Any ideas why?

Woohoo! I've got a dead simple RSS to Threads bot working.

Code at https://codeberg.org/edent/RSS2Threads

Uses PHP to grab an RSS feed and post new items to your #Threads account.

Feedback welcome

@Edent I don't think WEBP format is supported.

@dusoft as I say in the bug report, it also fails on JPG.

@Edent I haven't logged into Facebook for Developers in prolly a decade and it doesn't seem to let me upvote you.

I am just meant to tap the chevron, right?

@owenblacker I think so. But the whole platform is pretty shonky.
