-Updates: Implement StoreRemoteMedia for v3 and port Embed
-</title><description><![CDATA[
-
-<p>GNU social comes with two plugins that add relevant media functionality.
-Not talking neither about ImageEncoder nor VideoEncoder this time, but rather about StoreRemoteMedia and Embed.</p>
-
-<p><a href="https://code.undefinedhackers.net/GNUsocial/gnu-social/src/branch/v3/plugins/StoreRemoteMedia">StoreRemoteMedia</a>
-fetches remote files when they are <code>Linked</code> to in a note. I.e., when the major mime type isn't <code>text</code>. It triggers thumbnail generation.</p>
-
-<p><a href="https://code.undefinedhackers.net/GNUsocial/gnu-social/src/branch/v3/plugins/Embed">Embed</a>
-attempts to generate a page preview from open graph and oembed. I.e., acts when the major mime type is <code>text</code>.</p>
-
-<p>We've changed so much with GNU social v3 that, regarding SRM there was no possible port, just a complete rewrite. Both plugins became smaller and easier to understand while promoting the same functionality with more stability.</p>
