My #HomeKit after the "reliability" "upgrade" to Matter is unable to pair with Nanoleaf Shapes panels any more.
Endless mess of 'unknown error', 'operation in progress', factory resets, reboots, and LEDs blinking.

“The new integration means that when sharing a link to a Mastodon post, iMessage fetches details like the post text, author name, attachments and renders it inline in the conversation thread.

This go beyonds the standard web link previews that Messages attempts to fetch for any web URL, which do not include content like the Mastodon post body.”
