No thumbnail for news links (self.support)

Hi,

I noticed that thumbnails of links are not showing here https://lemmy.world/c/world, whereas same news link posted on https://lemmy.ml/c/worldnews is working fine, why is that?

Here is an example of the same news link on both communities:

https://lemmy.world/post/260407 (no thumbnail)

https://lemmy.ml/post/1317159 (with thumbnail)

Thanks

That's a good question. I'll look into that. Could be related to the rate limiting of pictrs.

Great. Let me know when you have an update to test it as I'm now using the 'url' field to insert a picture and putting the link to the original news story in the 'body'

+1 for this issue. I think working thumbnails would do a lot for general readability of content!
