I'm on peertube.wtf. It works normally on a desktop browser but on mobile the thumbnails are all broken in the Peertube app. Is there a setting I'm missing?

Might be techlore-specific. Thumbnails work everywhere else, but not when I access techlore.tv in the app.

It's on every instance, and on the explore tab too.

Its not happening to me, although some are slow. If I were to guess in my case, its pulling thumbnails from the server, which might be taking a while.

I have no idea with yours.

PeerTube instances caches each others thumbnails. It’s possible I simply just need to increase the caching under settings to solve the issue.

Oh, do you run peertube.wtf?? Thank you for your work if you do!

[–] meldrik@lemmy.wtf 1 points 3 weeks ago

Yes and thank you :)

Ah good old caching. Thank you for all you do!

What if you go the Techlore channel? I can see the thumbnails there.

[–] magguzu@midwest.social 2 points 3 weeks ago

Yes, that works! It seems to just be when exploring among all channels that the problem happens.
