You do? Hmm, that's strange... I'm uploading everything through Lemmy directly and haven't been hosting off site.

When I switch to my .world account, it doesn't appear that way to me either. Could anyone more technical take a stab at what might be happening?

    The problem is something to do with startrek.website, but it only affects the default UI (Lemmy-UI). I've seen it on a large number of images uploaded on startrek.website but viewed on another instance. It doesn't seem to affect files uploaded to external websites though

    I think it's something about HTTP cross-origin headers that they've configured incorrectly. I'll have to confirm later when I'm on a desktop browser.

    Edit: It's actually uBlock Origin blocking the images from loading! There's a rule in EasyList that is matching *.website (it's a lot more complicated of a rule, but that's the gist). It blocks it unless it's coming from one of a few whitelisted pages like lemmy.world.

    I found a workaround mentioned here: https://lemm.ee/comment/3068996

    Oh interesting... Yeah, I mostly post from Liftoff or Voyager on my phone, so I wouldn't have noticed.

    I wonder if the startrek.website admins are aware of the inconsistency.

    I assumed it was something to do with lemm.ee's policy with federating images to protect against CP attacks, since everyone else who says they're having trouble is also from lemm.ee. I think what they're doing is just linking to the other instances' images directly, and maybe startrek.website doesn't like that?

    I can see your lemmy.world account's posts just fine.
