    Did you guys know that Facebook blocks you from posting your Diaspora profile as a link to your Facebook wall?

    At least me and my friend here, what about you? Does it work for you? Note that this works fine if you post the link as a regular status update (just text), but if you choose to (or rather, facebook tries automatically to) post it as a "link" - the error message appears.
