My recommendation is to continue to cross-post full articles.

Additionally: Thank you for cross-posting articles here, so I have an opportunity enjoy them! I can only manage so many platforms to consume information (even using an RSS reader like HeartFeed) so Dev.to supporting easy cross-posting via RSS (not sure if you're using this?) and content creators taking the time to cross-post is a win-win for me.

PS: Your CodeTips links appear to be broken (relative vs absolute?)

They should be fixed now. Weirdly they need the URL schema (https) otherwise it tries to resolve to a relative URL.

I think you're right, and I'm planning on continuing full posts.

I'm just glad you're enjoying them 👍

Can you point me to which link is broken please?

For me, both of the "(CodeTips)" links in your post above link to:

dev.to/devdrake0/codetips.co.uk

This looks like the links are relative vs absolute, i.e. maybe missing the leading "https://" in your in your link definition?

Since nobody else has mentioned it, maybe its just an anomaly in my browser.

Hmm no you're absolutely right. It looks like something has gone wrong on the dev side - the markup is definitely correct.

Thanks for letting me know.

Fix confirmed on my end - Nice to know my browser isn't borked.

Haha no it definitely isn't. Thank you for letting me know, I'll make sure all my links have the schema from now on 👍👍
