Especially retrieving an image. Maybe do it like Facebook and propose a few options to the user, let them choose the best option. Now it comes up empty a lot of times.

I guess it's best to wait for #51 to be completed before starting with this one, right? Might even be solved automagically with the other issue, because AI and bots will take over the world!

Since #51 has been closed for some time now: was this issue automagically solved? Or is it still relevant?

I'm still not a 100% happy about it. It misses the image, title and description a lot of times. And whenever it does get the title it has "Home -" in it for instance. I've looked at some alternatives but they didn't really do better. Maybe it's just not solvable. Also, a lot of people making these websites do a poor job of being pretty on socials and making live easier for scraping solutions like these.
