Today I fixed a bug in markata that has been occurring for a few months where the description for posts come out as None if coming from cache, the issue was a pretty simple check and pull properly from cache. This fixes all the descriptions in feeds and metadata on the post.
Better description #
While in there we went ahead and improved our get_description to more accurately return plain text without escaped characters, remove cutoff words, and add an elipsis if the description cuts off the text.
More description #
While I was there I made longer form posts, til, blog-post
use the super
description of 500 characters instead of the regular 120 character description.
