Hey, following up on this, this feature is not the default behavior in Lemmy, and was disabled in our config inadvertently some time ago. My apologies.

It is now re-enabled, and we're considering if any further remediation is necessary.

Really appreciate the heads-up about this issue.

    Thanks, I appreciate the fix and the reply! doggirl-thumbsup

    I had assumed the proxy was dynamic (i.e. the Hexbear server checks for embedded resources hosted on external domains and replaces them with the proxied links on-the-fly when serving requested content), but based on the earlier images/videos in this thread not being proxied even after the config has been updated it looks like it happens when records are committed to the database? That's unfortunate, and I presume that's why you're considering possible further action. In an ideal world the database entries in the intervening period would be amended, but that does seem like a hassle, and I won't pretend to know how involved that might be.

    Thanks for pinging me to let me know, I appreciate the fix! I honestly didn't even thing about that being an issue if not for the other comrades pointing it out.

    I have one question, is there a correct place for feedback and feature requests about the funny bear site?

    c/feedback is the official spot. For more urgent matters, tags/reports/DMs to admins can also work.

    Feature requests can be tough because we (currently at least, open to volunteers) have very limited development resources, but feel free to ask, there's always a chance the feature is something that can be done with a config change or a bot or a userscript, or that another user will come along and go "I reckon I could implement that."
