Usually they are, but it needn't be a specific server or individual. For example, if I search and browse down the list, all images past, say August this year are missing

Hmm... I wonder if this is something to do with your server's media settings.

I'm not a sysadmin unfortunately but perhaps your server admin could help?

OK, many thanks, I wondered if its a general thing. I realise you weren't volunteering to be tech support LOL.
I wonder if @jaz has any thoughts

Interesting... looks like the image has been hidden for some reason? It's a customised border around it.

Hey @jaz can you help? A user is unable to see images sometimes, and they're surrounded by a hazard-style box?

@feditips @_dunnster there's two things happening here: 1. images with no alt text get that border if browsed on toot.wales 2. our host has a media cache setting that removes old media - which is then re-requested upon demand.

It looks like the re-requests are getting queued and taking up to a minute to get re-delivered from the remote server in some cases.

I suggest scrolling more slowly :o) - or opening the original page (three dot menu) if you need to see the image more quickly

@feditips @_dunnster for example, here you can see the image has been re-delivered to toot.wales (although it still has the "no alt text provided" border)
