Does anybody know why and when thumbnails for YouTube videos are shown or not? It appears to depend on the lemmy instance the posts are served from:
Without Thumbnails
With Thumbnails
Update: It’s not only YT thumbnails which aren’t shown. This is your post about the free 24 slot bag as shown on lemmy.wtf
(without thumbnail), lemmy.world
(without thumbnail) and feddit.de
(with thumbnail):
I was able to subscribe from lemmy.world to kbin.social (yesterday or the day before). I tried it on another account from feddit.de today and it did not work. My guess is a problem at kbin.social.
This works:
This doesn’t work:
The difference between the two communities at lemmy.world, is that c/selfhosted has been around for a long time and c/xcode was created just a few days ago. It seems that only communities that initially connected with kbin.social work, but not new communities.
I see you have been discussing this with the people & mod of the GW2 magazine on kbin.social already. To me it really seems to be an issue on their side. As I mentioned above: I currently cannot subscribe from feddit.de to their guildwars2 magazine, either.
