It's weird, using Boost, while scrolling i can see the grumpy looking orange cat, but click inside the post it shows blank
if you see a picture copy paste it in a comment. likely some lemmy bug. one eyed bug. I'm never sure what to expect when posting different media
It seems to depend on what you use to access Lemmy. With Jerboa all I get is a blank. With Eternity I'm getting this:
Ohh, didn't think of posting a screengrab of it, but @Tartufo@lemmy.world had me covered, it's exactly same with boost.
great, I'll link to this post in a bug report. maybe some overworked dev has a quick fix. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues OSS in action, bless their hearts
i think a thumbnail was attached but no original picture for some reason
Oops, you nailed it. Probably should've checked everything actually uploaded....
was about to say, Oop, op fixed it somehow. bug reports always ask for reproduceable steps. if you know maybe they'd be interested enough to prevent in the future. I think anyone can submit an issue. for sure with a GitHub account. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues
Honestly, I'm blaming user error, kinda just slapped it together and hit post. Good to know for the future though!
seems like i dealt with this years ago when doing some wordpress forms. uploaded file gets dropped after thumbnail processing. coding error. like the post was incomplete like you mentioned
