If you go to !videos@lemmy.world and scroll you’ll see some of the posts have a youtube thumbnail image, but not all.
I wanna post YouTube videos, but no one seems to engage much without a thumbnail, which makes sense, but I’m not sure what would result in the post actually having a thumbnail
If anyone has advice or guidance I’d appreciate it :) Thanks!
EDIT: so far it seems like it’s potentially a combination of what version of lemmy the posters account is running, and how that instance is configured…
You must log in or register to comment.
Instances running 0.19.5 (I think) allow manually adding a thumbnail.
I extract them from https://youtube-thumbnail-grabber.com/ and manually add them in.
Really annoying.
