Question 1

Why does kast.rest's Twitter card show a small image?

kast.rest sets `twitter:card` to `summary`, which renders the image as a small thumbnail. To get the large hero image format, the meta tag would need to be `<meta name="twitter:card" content="summary_large_image">`.

kast.rest uses the `summary` card type. This renders a small square thumbnail next to the title and description.
