Description
## Bug description
On all timelines, when navigating by keyboard shortcuts (J and K) with a screen reader on (e.g., NVDA), the screen reader reports only a link with no text, which is the first identifiable element of each post's card.
- Site: phanpy.social
- Site version: 2024.08.31.1b8ab47
- Instance: bolha.us
## To Reproduce
1. Go to https://phanpy.social
2. With NVDA on, enter focus mode by pressing NVDA + Space.
3. Jump some posts by pressing J
4. Jump back a few posts by pressing K
5. Notice that NVDA only announces "link"
## Expected behavior
The screen reader should announce the post content in a way that is meaningful, like it happens on Mastodon's default web app, including user who posted, post content, media descriptions and other related information.
## Desktop
- OS: Windows 11
- Browser: Brave
- Version: 1.69.160 Chromium: 128.0.6613.114
## Additional context
- NVDA version: 2024.3

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue on phanpy.social with NVDA, using J and K to focus post cards, then inspect the first link in a timeline post. Compare the announcement with Mastodon's default web app and verify that the post author, content, media descriptions, and related information are meaningfully announced.
