I’ve only noticed this in the past few days. Not sure if it’s a new issue, but I feel I wasn’t getting this before last week. (Eta: I’m on the latest update) Most Lemmy image links in comments are doing this now.
Sorry if it’s been posted already; I tried searching and didn’t see anything.
Thank you for all your hard work – I LOVE Voyager! ❤️
I'm guessing Lemmy is now converting GIFs to WEBMs to save space, then.
Trouble is, I just tried it on my end and yeah, Safari won't open it. VLC can, however. I guess it means Lemmy apps will need to add a webm library now.
Edit: just saw your edit. I'm mentioning Safari because clearly Voyager was trying to open the webm using the in-app browser and not natively. Meaning Voyager doesn't know how to deal with this format.
That makes sense. Hopefully it will be resolved in a future update.
Thanks!
