As this worked for the Internet Archive, let’s try another one:

I am looking first an engineering contact at Youtube to troubleshoot the issue with them no longer returning metadata when Mastodon tries to fetch the preview for a video. It comes from their side and something changed a few weeks ago, and I would like to see how this can be fixed.

Fediverse, do your magic ✨

Yes, it's been like this now for a month or three.

But what's interesting is some instances can get the data and some can't. I've been trying to find a solution myself.

I assumed it might be YouTube trying to stop folks watching within Mastodon and avoiding their advertising? Just a guess.

Good luck.

@JSharp1436 @renchap Yeah, they want to push me to Youtube and then they block me because of my adblocker. Well, the adblocker isn't coming down, Youtube guys. Guess I won't watch your shitty video.

Quick question: if I upload to mastodon a downloaded YouTube video, so it plays within mastodon, will that have breached any of their rules?

YouTube rules. I don't think we do. I'm just being super cautious.
