That's really weird. I already went through the issue tracker on GitHub for both the lemmy backend as well as the frontend, but couldn't find anything. I also checked the documentation whether there is a configuration option somewhere. Nothing.
~~My guess is that the thumbnail is extracted (read from the opengraph tag available via the posted URL) in the frontend (and not the backend).~~ (wrong guess)
The only thing I could find on the issue tracker which might be related is this:
https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/709
I have no idea why it is happening. The only thing I can think of is Cloudflare tunnel, but why would that keep the thumbnails from loading? I send a message to the admin of Lemmy.world.
edit: I am also trying to troubleshoot why users from kbin.social can't subscribe to here and vice versa.
I was able to subscribe from lemmy.world to kbin.social (yesterday or the day before). I tried it on another account from feddit.de today and it did not work. My guess is a problem at kbin.social.
This works:
This doesn't work:
The difference between the two communities at lemmy.world, is that c/selfhosted has been around for a long time and c/xcode was created just a few days ago. It seems that only communities that initially connected with kbin.social work, but not new communities.
I see you have been discussing this with the people & mod of the GW2 magazine on kbin.social already. To me it really seems to be an issue on their side. As I mentioned above: I currently cannot subscribe from
feddit.de
to their GW2 magazine, either.Update: I was now able to subscribe to their GW2 magazine from
feddit.de
, but it does not display any posts.
