I seem to be missing some context - anyone want to fill in the rest of the class?

Edit: the image being shown to ~~lemmy users~~ everybody else is not being shown to ~~mbin users~~ ~~me and/or fedia.io users (unclear)~~ some unknown subsection of mbin users including me, so here it is for those like me: https://imgur.com/q4zuZzz

Must be your instance. I can see it fine from kbin.melroy.org, which also uses the mbin software.

Well, now that's just discrimination :(

Weird though!

Edit: it also doesn't show for kbin.earth (which is running mbin) - I'm curious what the source of the problem is for this strange and seemingly-arbitrary minority of users https://kbin.earth/m/[email protected]/t/1028068/So-after-using-Lemmy-for-1-5-Years-You-are-telling

why do mbin links always break on lemmy?

Minor bug in the UI / frontend I guess - you could try reporting it to the lemmy devs on GitHub if there isn't already a GitHub issue for it

hmm, is it possible that maybe both of those mbin instances blocks imgur? I have accounts on both but I'm using fedia as my main

if this keeps up I might just abandon mbin and go with Lemmy while waiting for piefed lol...

Seems like there are other Imgur submissions on Fedia that mostly work fine (no thumbnail, but the image itself shows up if you click on the expando thing in the UI) https://fedia.io/d/imgur.com

I did notice that at some point around the time of my second comment Imgur was having some issues (I was given a JSON file instead of a webpage or image when I found and clicked on the image that OP submitted), so maybe fedia and a few other instances just got unlucky with the timing?

If you notice it becoming a recurring problem you can report it on Fedia's meta magazine/community: [email protected]
