Mastodon should not have a fixed URL prefix

To my understanding it's contradictory to the Mastodon concept to hard-code a server URL.

Given: urlPrefix = "https://fintoot.space/" in
https://git.drupalcode.org/project/social_media_links/-/blob/8.x-2.x/src...

Should be changed to urlPrefix = "https://"

Of course that interfers with existing usage. I'm not a developer, thinking about a solution along the lines of adding an update script to detect whether active modules

  • have an active Mastodon plugin
  • given database entries in the respective tables
  • using an (unpatched!) fintoot prefix

... and append the deprecated prefix to the entries.
