I've been noticing more and more broken thumbnails over the last few weeks, but now it seems like things have fully fallen apart. A little over half of the posts have had functional images in recent weeks, but now I've noticed that pretty much none of the posts made within the last 10 hours or so have functional thumbnails. In-instance thumbnails are fine, but now pretty much every other instance's images are broken.

Previous posts in the same vein in this community seem to indicate that it's an issue with other hosts denying lemm.ee access to download images, but surely something can be done, right? It's pretty tedious to click on each post individually if I'm just browsing memes. Is this issue just on my end, or is it broken for everyone? And if it's just me, is there a way to fix it? I've tried clearing the site data from my browser (firefox) to no avail.

A couple screenshots in case it's just on my end: https://imgur.com/a/broken-images-guyVr1n

What options do we have to deal with suspected downvote brigading or voting abuse on lemmy and what do we do to report it

Just starting this week, when I first visit lemm.ee, I used to be logged in auytomatically, every time, but now I have to manually choose to login. My browser (Firefox on Ubuntu) definitely knows my username and password still.

Then, I can click around, go from page to page as I want, but if I hit F5 to refresh the page, or right click and choose the reload icon, I do get the page reloaded, but now I am not logged in.

I've tried disabling my (5) extensions but still saw this issue.

I tried completely erasing my cache in Firefox. Same issue still.

ETA: I tried explicitly logging out and logging back in (again). Same issue still.

This is only happening on lemm.ee.

Any ideas why Lemme doesn't want to keep me logged in?

Thanks!

ETA -- Thursday night: I made sure I am clearing cookies along with the cache. The problem remains. And, as @yogurt@lemm.ee said, the expiration date on the "jwt" cookie lemmee sets does expire in 3023. I installed an extension so I could edit that, set it to 2Dec 13 2025, saved the cookie. But still refreshing the page causes me to be logged out. This is just an annoyance at this point, not a big deal, but some sort of resolution eventually would be great. Thanks for any other ideas.

EDIT: Solved this by adding "English" to my languages in account settings. Solution from a comment by @mp3@lemmy.ca

For some reason I can't see any posts/comments on hexbear or by users from hexbear. I don't have the instance blocked or muted or anything. I can click the communities and bring them up, but they don't show user content. This is specifically only on my account too. It doesn't matter if I'm on an app or on the website. There isn't anything I can find that causes this. I would like to see posts by hexbear users so this is pretty annoying.

I often find embedded images from other instances straight up don't appear, while embedded images from lemm.ee take a really long time to show up (and sometimes don't at all)

For example, the top comment here has an embedded image but it's not showing on lemm.ee: https://lemm.ee/post/38434336

An even weirder thing is that it thinks youtube links are also images, and tries caching them.

On some communities the header image and community logo is broken, e.g. here: https://lemm.ee/c/idm

I'm the mod there, I haven't changed images since I started the community, a year ago. If I click on the Edit community button, I can see both images on the sidebar.

If I comment somewhere and link to external image with the markdown syntax ![](...) images not showing up. This works in post bodies, it only affects comments.

Created a test post here, you can see the image in the first comment is not visible: https://lemm.ee/post/38021843

This suggests it's likely federation issues

Edit:

I've just realised, my post weren't getting attentions

I checked, there's a federation problem with lemm.ee

Hi!

So today, I made three image posts, and all of them have broken thumbnails such as this one

and it seems to be showing up broken for other users too, not just me. I'm uploading images the same as usual and the thumbnails for my older posts were fine.
