anyone else having problems with redgif videos never loading? (lemmy.ca)

So I have subscribed to various NSFW subs, but all the posted redgifs in those subs never load, showing a black image with an eye with a line though it and NSFW below it.

When I click them, I immediately get an error that says " failed to load redgif video" though my phone does show network activity in mb/s range right after I clicked it.

Anyone else have this issue?

This has never worked. Weird that nobody mentioned it before

From what I've read from another Lemmy app dev (Sync for Reddit), RedGifs often breaks their oAuth and requires an app update to repair, and the dev uses a server to provide the oauth updates on-the-fly to remediate that without having to push an app update.

It's my server I use for Redgif oauth stuff
That way when it breaks I don't have to redeploy sync

Its Weird, the RedditIsFun app never had that issue.

Honestly I love the look and feel of this app but it sucks shit when it comes to loading images

Hi, thank you for the feedback! Can you confirm this is on v182? I just checked a couple links and they all seem to load correctly but I'll continue to investigate. Cheers!

Anyone know how to fix the NSFW posts on Connect? Most of the NSFW places I saved no longer load.

Yes, I see this constantly just scrolling through All. It's pretty annoying, but I just assume I was never meant to see whatever is within that post.

Yeah hasn't worked for me for at least a month or so, they did use to but I'll be honest I've no clue if it's connect, instance or Isp related. Saying that though they don't work for me through a vpn either so probably not the Isp.

I've noticed it'll load the redgif webpage if you go back and click the link again, multiple times sometimes.
