Can confirm this happens to me too. I thought it was imgurl blocking the IP range or something. They're probably getting the Fediverse hug of death too
Likely true, the preview is working on test instances.
Imgur have quite recently blocked my VPN (privately hosted, not mainstream). They don't like non-domestic IPs accessing their service it appears. I fear the only way to fix this is not to attempt to pull and cache imgur images :(
I've noticed that clicking the link to the imgur page loads the image fine as long as you're on their page but the inline images don't load properly into kbin.
Hu, that hasn't worked for me so far, clicking the link only takes me to the page in the screenshot, not to imgur.
This is my experience also. I hope this gets fixed. I have to click the thread open first before clicking open the imgur link.
