For example this tweet points to DOI URLs not JOSS URLs
I this a good or a bad thing? DOIs are better for Altmetrics?
At the start, it seemed like creating a new type of journal that made the process of generating a paper from software easy was the main thing to do. Now that this works, making the journal look and act more like a traditional journal seems to me more important. :)

pointing to DOIs seems good to me.

👍 agreed!
Altmetrics require at least one meta data tag that is an identifier, i.e. citation_doi
in the case of JOSS: https://help.altmetric.com/support/solutions/articles/6000141419-what-is-good-metadata-
They also prefer that the citation_issn
is present.
I've created PR https://github.com/openjournals/whedon/pull/8 to whedon implementing both tags in the article HTML template.
The citation_doi
field (and more) was added in https://github.com/openjournals/whedon/pull/12
👍
I had filed a ticket with the altmetric support about the lack of coverage some months ago. Given the metadata updates, I have now reopened that ticket (https://help.altmetric.com/support/tickets/44401 - not sure if that is accessible for anyone besides me) , so hopefully full altmetric coverage will be available soon for JOSS.
Just heard back from almetrics support. Coverage should work going forward. See e.g. https://www.altmetric.com/details/24601435
Since Altmetrics are mainly based on DOI, it might be nice to have a share button that auto-populates twitter/FB whatever with the title and URL for DOI.
