Hello @npub1u84d...s78a,
I wanted to share some feedback on the documentation provided in the [*Highlighting Journalism on Mastodon*]() blog post.
Specifically, in [*The technical*]() section, the example code for the `fediverse:creator` meta tag is given as:
```
<meta name="fediverse:creator" content="@npub1vl7j...f6g0" />
```
Based on my testing (and that of others), Mastodon doesn't seem to recognize the creator link correctly when the leading `@` is present in the `content` attribute. It only works when the `@` is removed, like this:
```
<meta name="fediverse:creator" content="Gargron@mastodon.social" />
```
Following the blog's example directly led to some wasted time figuring out why it wasn't working. It would be great if either the example in the blog post could be corrected to reflect the current requirement, or if Mastodon's parser could be made more flexible to accept the handle with or without the leading `@`.
Appreciate all you do for #Mastodon!
