· Föderation EN Di 06.08.2024 22:59:38 p.s. It's possible too that this may not work for you, there seems to be a bug that is difficult to nail down. I've just been messaging with someone who cannot get the full length address to work for some videos on their server, but the same addresses work on my server. I'm mainly posting about the shortener because removing it has worked for some people, and it's worth a try. (Plus removing shorteners will help protect your privacy in any case.) |
Föderation EN Di 06.08.2024 23:08:09 @FediTips there was a weird config/bug a few weeks back where YouTube preview links in toots were showing up in German regardless of the original language. (Don't know if it was instance specific) |
Föderation EN Di 06.08.2024 23:19:08 @FediTips I experience this with some PeerTube videos as well. I cant see any pattern of that occuring, it happens that one video is getting embed fine, and the next one from the same instance fails. Same with YouTube videos too. |
Föderation EN Mi 07.08.2024 20:07:51 Have you tried waiting and reloading the page later in the day? Instances are sometimes slow to generate the preview. |
Föderation EN Mi 07.08.2024 20:19:25 @FediTips yes, waiting resolves the issue. |
Föderation EN Mi 07.08.2024 00:18:06 @FediTips the YouTu.be shortener is just the video ID, so the privacy should be the same as any YouTube link |
Föderation EN Mi 07.08.2024 20:06:40 Ahhh... that's a really good point, did not notice they were 100% identical. For some reason I'd got into my head they had put a different code on the shortener, but obviously not. |
Föderation EN Sa 10.08.2024 19:06:51 @FediTips yes actually that method doesn’t work on our instance either. Tried the full address, but still not getting preview. |
