"Failed to retrieve Redgif video" error
Pretty much all posts linked to redgifs produce the same error, which messes with how the feed looks and loads. Incredibly grateful for all you've done with the app!
My browser also fails to open them, unless I make the following change:
NSFW WARNING!
Original link example: https://api.redgifs.com/v2/gifs/mediumaquamarinecharmingtahr/files/MediumaquamarineCharmingTahr-silent.mp4
Becomes: https://redgifs.com/ifr/mediumaquamarinecharmingtahr/
(Please forgive including NSFW link to demonstrate link modification)
There are 3 changes to the link: remove api, replace first two subdirectories with ifr, and remove last two items
Wanted to share in case anyone else has the same difficulty
It's the app, the same thing happened to sync a while back
{"error":{"code":"FileAccessDenied","message":"Access to this file was denied for your application.","status":403,"rtfm":"https://github.com/Redgifs/api/wiki/Embedding-gifs#file-access"},"docs":"https://github.com/Redgifs/api/wiki/Embedding-gifs#file-access"}
Did they manage a fix?
The last update was 4 months ago so no lol
Just checking you’re not in a state that passed one of those draconian porn verification laws? Redgifs is following suit with whichever states PornHub is blocking. Try launching the lemmy page in your browser directly and see what you get too.
