Not exactly, though! At least for me, opening the comment via browser is enough. As in, the embed loads when it does not in my client (Sync). Does Lemmy (the web client) have some smarts for resolving the true image URL?
The website interface itself for this thread also shows the image as a blank reply for me. At least Yiffit’s and Lemmy.World’s (which afaik is the default Lemmy uses). The url going through your instance might be something Sync is doing. The OP’s link goes straight to the image yarn url.

Weird, it loads for me in sync, but there have definitely been times where images don’t load. There must be something else going on

Right, so opening the comment in browser takes me to the commenter’s home instance, (lemmy.sdf.org), where it does load:

It does not load on my home instance (sopuli):

Maybe a regression in Lemmy since the two instances are not on the same version (0.19.3 works, 0.19.8 does not)? Or a backend configuration thingy?
Maybe? I’m not getting the image to load properly even there, myself, in Jerboa or the instance’s own site on a browser.
Perhaps it’s a federation issue? Or a combination of version and federating the content between higher version instances?
