I’ve noticed an issue where any posts that use a redgifs backed image don’t show correctly and just have an “unknown” icon. If I click on the “view externally” link in Voyager it’ll take me to the webpage that displays it correctly. I don’t know if this is because Voyager has an issue displaying it, or the instance customized their UI to display it.

      Interesting, so I tried looking at some of these on the app and am getting a black screen too.

      If I click on the source (copy the link) and go to a browser it opens fine.

      Am using iOS - and running it thru a VPN. I tried clearing the cache, making sure I had the latest update, etc. it still gives me a black screen. Don’t think it is just OP.

      Nope. I realize that could be a potential reason, but if I click on the link button below the image it launches in a safari browser and shows just fine. That leads me to believe its app related and not regional.

        Ah darn, does clearing the cache resolve it?

          I did the one that was “Settings > General > Clear Cache”. I’m on iOS if there’s another option you can think of.

            Sounds like a bug if that didn’t help.

            Maybe try logging off the app and back on. Just a guess
