Thank you. It doesn’t show up in mine
Curious follow up, did it ever show up? Within the fediverse when you post a picture/post the image is uploaded to whatever instance hosts that community. In this case sopuli.xyz. Then the post flows out to all the other federated instances when it is accessed from how I understand it. So I am curious if maybe it was federating properly to say .world or dbzer0 but didn't come though yet to your instance that you were viewing from on your client, beehaw. (In which I hope it did a little while later)
I appreciate the reply, but it never did. It happens with a few things, specifically some images. It redirects to a separate page when I click on it.
Darn, maybe keep a mental note which instancea the photos aren't federating from, or check to see if they show via the website to see if it is an issue with your app vs it being the federation
Right, because it’s not every instance. If I use the desktop browser maybe that’s the issue?
I doubt the browser would be it, but you can always copy/paste the link into another browser to double check that really quick. I was thinking it may have been the client(phone app), but you aren't using one... If you come across another beehaw user maybe you can check with them if they can see a preview you can't.
I'm very much a compartmentalize issues and see where it may be broken. If you see it from your phone and not your laptop, then it can't be a beehaw issue. If it works for another beehaw users, then it likely is an issue with the way you view it.
