Here's the video thumbnail:
Does lemmy not pull the image or something? This is what I see on piefed:
And on Mastodon.social:
Is lemmy the only one that does not auto-pull the thumbnail?
I'm using Lemmy and eternity app and thumbnail works fine?
Yeah im trying out every other fedi platform. Seems like they either pull directly from youtube to get the thumbnail OR they just use the embed on youtube. Lemmy is the one (from what I can tell) that has an issue with this.
It has the proper thumbnail for me on Lemmy.
How long after it was posted did you see it? Sometimes it takes a few minutes after posting for an associated image, including thumbnails, to actually appear.
I have no idea. It was instant for me. But on lemmy.world the thumbnail is not showing up.
Actually it looks more and more like a bug on their system. All the videos dont have thumbnails but ONLY on lemmy.world. That I can see anyways.
