Images don't federate
-
I’ve posted a topic with two images that are both uploaded to the forum I post from. When I see that topic from Mastodon, the pictures do not federate. The rest of the post is readable.
I tried changing the default URL to include the domain name, but that didn’t change anything. Is this on Mastodon’s end or can something be done?
Just curious do your images federate between nodebb sites. If you want to DM me your site I can do a test from mine?
One thing I now appreciate is it must be a huge challenge for julian to fix cross federation to all sites, because you cant control what 3rd parties do. And Lemmy for example, is a law to inself on some things

Strange I cant find the topic or search, or your username in search.
Between nodebb sites I would have expected that to work -

Here’s the post here: https://community.nodebb.org/post/https%3A%2F%2Fforum.fedi.dk%2Fpost%2F1436
Seems the images don’t load due to cross browser security settings

malte@forum.fedi.dk one other thing.
There are some shifting specifications related to how long-form text is handled. Specifically, NodeBB is on-track to follow FEP b2b8: Long-form Text.
Part of that means that topic OPs are federated out as
Articleswithout inline images convertd into attachments, because they are technically not attachments. This means right now Mastodon will not show the media at all.Mastodon will implement this FEP eventually, which means it will properly handle the attached
Notepreview, which does contain the attachments.NodeBB can better handle the images coming from other NodeBBs, though. That’s a bug.

@julian@community.nodebb.org Nice. If I understand well, Mastodon will eventually be able to handle embedded images coming from NodeBB. Looking forward!
malte@forum.fedi.dk sort of. Mastodon from a design standpoint doesn’t want to implement inline images, and I understand their point of view. The point of the
Notepreviewis to provide an alternative format that Mastodon can better understand.
