mmikowskiKubuntu home screen has an issue: https://i.imgur.com/7TVJsrV.png02:42
mmikowskiThis is something for @Rick_Timmis I suspect. It gets worse the smaller the screen. It look very bad on phones.02:43
mmikowskivalorie can you get to Rick?02:44
valoriewhat changed?02:45
valorieby kub. home screen do you mean after upgrade, or what?02:45
valorieor is this on the website02:46
valorieunsure what you mean by 02:46
valorie"get to Rick?"02:46

arraybolt3valorie: He's looking at the "Kubuntu 24.04 Released" page on the website.02:57
arraybolt3Also the issue isn't reproducible on all devices. Everything looks perfectly fine on my end for reasons unknown.02:57
valorieah02:57
valoriewell, I have no special insight into the website02:58
valorieI can edit posts, and that's about it02:58
arraybolt3I was wrong about it not being reproducible here, it's on the home page, not the blog page.03:04
arraybolt3And I can reproduce.03:04
mmikowskivalorie: Hi! I meant just mention to him if you have a chat connection or regular communication.03:14
valoriegot it03:15
mmikowskiThe problem with the image is there is no aspect ratio set, so on phones and tablets, it looks awful.03:15
valorieah03:15
mmikowskior narrower browser windows.03:15
mmikowskiI have the actual fix too.03:15
valorienext time we're both online, I'll paste that feedback to him03:15
arraybolt3mmikowski: sorry if I'm not responding to messages on Element, I managed to crash the Ubuntu homeserver on accident.03:16
mmikowskiBroken:  `<img loading="lazy" width="1280" height="800" class="wp-image-5190" src="https://kubuntu.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/7368/NoblePlasma.jpg" alt="">`03:16
valorieanother idea is to file a bug report maybe on the Devel list with the text and fix03:16
valorieI'm not sure how many have access to fix images03:17
mmikowskiThis fixes it: `<img loading="lazy" class="wp-image-5190" style="aspect-ratio:1280/800" src="https://kubuntu.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/7368/NoblePlasma.jpg" alt="">`03:17
mmikowskiarraybolt3: why am I not surprised 😁03:17
arraybolt3:grimace:03:17
arraybolt3tl;dr: join a bunch of rooms in the KDE Community space, kaboom03:18
mmikowskibtw, also, links in news go to a 503 error page. All that I tried go there anyway. This seems very recent.03:18
mmikowskiHere's the 24.04 release news: https://kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-24-04-lts-noble-numbat-released/03:19
mmikowskiAll links on news page go to 503.03:19
mmikowskiMy guess is ahoneycut or rtimmis. Neither of whom I can call out here anymore due to IRC bridges, I think. (Not complaining, just saying).03:21
IrcsomeBot<Rick_Timmis> Right, I can take a look at kubuntu.org tomorrow night07:16
IrcsomeBot<Rick_Timmis> I am on Matrix on all my devices I don't go on IRC much, and still my primary is Telegram07:17
IrcsomeBot<Rick_Timmis> Of course I am asleep when your awake too 😴07:18
mparilloNot that I am an expert on WordPress editing, but I bet the the geometry of the images is somehow the default. When I go to the home page in edit mode, the block containing the image has a notice, "This block contains unexpected or invalid content" and the only option is to Attempt Block Recovery.09:03
mparilloWhen I load https://kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-24-04-lts-noble-numbat-released/ and click on one of the links (for example to: https://kde.org/announcements/frameworks/5/5.115.0/), it loads fine for me. 09:05
mmikowskiHe mparillo and IrcsomeBot Rick_Timmis. So the links came back. I must have caught the website at a bad time.21:48
mmikowskiI am pretty on top of web implementation, and I can say with certainty the issue is an over-constrained image. The browser doesn't know what to do, so it does its best, which for many platforms isn't good enough. I provided the fix above, which sets an aspect ratio which works far better than the ancient width and height attributes.21:50
mmikowskiAt least on local Firefox, Chrome, and emulators, the image looks good.21:51
