Web Interface wants me to download .mp4 video from streamable.com
Before I begin, I have to say that this post includes links to an instance, ani.social, that has been defederated from this instance, lemmy.ml, because that's where I discovered this problem.
But in this case, I hope the admins understand that this is worth reporting and investigating, and don't insta-delete this post, because this problem appears to happen with more than that one instance, including sopuli.xyz, which is not defederated from here at lemmy.ml
On .ml, I just get a clickable thumbnail of the video.
It’s just that one post.
On other earlier and later posts of links to streamable.com videos in the same /c, I just get the expected clickable thumbnail.
Maybe some kind of corrupted data as that particular post was transferring over?
When I asked about this on ani.social's meta /c, another user reported the auto-download request on ani.social, sopuli.xyz (the /c's home!) but not on lemmy.ml and lemmy.world
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]
