Hey @wild1145

Question.... Why is it, when I post a YouTube link like above, why I don't get a "preview" of the content?

Cheers eh

@ClintonAnderson It seems to be a change YouTube made a little while ago to their filters / firewalls. Unfortunately it's not something we can change as it's their side blocking us trying to pull a preview.

@wild1145

How come others seem to be able to post previews? Is there maybe a posting method I'm unaware of?

@FediTips tagged as n for additional information

@ClintonAnderson @FediTips It'll depend on the instance I think Mastodon.social being huge asked YouTube to unblock them, but I don't know how they did or who they spoke to. I'm not sure if there are tricks to getting it unblocked but if there are I haven't found them!

@wild1145

It works for me here - @bryson , did you have to do anything special about Youtube previews?

(I have noticed that sometimes I get a weird "failed" embed on other people's youtube posts on our server, that just has some German and goes to nowhere if clicked, I assume that's a language thing that comes from being on a EU-based server, I'm Canadian)

Oh but one other thing to note - when I post a YT link, it doesn't actually create the thumbnail right away - the server takes about 30-60 seconds to create it and update the toot. Have you gone back and checked your previous toots at all?
