Okay but why is the thumbnail an erotic underwear model with her bush out?

Presumably, your lemmy instance (or rather kbin) did something wrong with its caching.

IIRC it's a kbin isduIsue only. Some problem with cached images

If it is not W, I'm fine with that.

I think there's a bug causing threads that don't have an image to pull a random thumbnail. I've seen a lot of unrelated thumbnails the last couple of days, but this is the first NSFW one.

Isn't that a kbin exclusive bug? Tbh it brought me more entertainment than annoyance so far

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah, it seems to only affect Kbin instances right now. If you view the thread on the original instance, you'll see the correct thumbnail.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago

That is a valid question. I cannot find the thumbnail image on the site.

I see...and why is it the thumbnail on an article for a piece of computer hardware?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Kbin apparently is having caching issues.
