Problems with feddit.org in Voyager (discuss.tchncs.de)

I can't see pictures posted by feddit.org users in Voyager right now. When I view !ich_iel@feddit.org f.e., I see a lot of "Failed to load media".

And I can't use my feddit.org account in Voyager right now. It says "Failed to load more posts".

I don't experience these problems when I use Lemmy web UI.

I'm having the same "failed to load media"-problem with feddit.org.

For weeks now.

I noticed, that it does not only affect Voyager but also one of the 3 browsers i have on my phone (Pixel 6a).

These two apps do have this exact problem:

  • Voyager
  • Via (Browser)

These two apps don't have this problem:

  • Chrome (Browser)
  • Kiwi (Browser)

Then:

  • I tried clearing the cache of Voyager & Via.
  • I tried clearing the cache of the native web-view, just in case it's the one that's been used by voyager or via.
  • I tried mobile & wi-fi.
  • I tried various NordVPN servers.
  • I tried an app to change the DNS servers.
  • I tried a reboot.

Actually the Via-Browser even shows a "Nginx 403 Forbidden" page when i visit https://feddit.org/.

My guess would be the User-Agent string; But since most Voyager users don't seem to have this problem this probably isn't it. ๐Ÿค”

It's weird ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ

I'll add for info: I'm on android voyager version 2.37.2 and via a sopuli.xyz account, I can see all the posts/images on ich_iel.

Thanks! I did some more testing myself.

I can't see feddit.org images from my piefed.zip account in Voyager, but it works with my lemmy.zip account in Voyager.

I am on the same version and can also use my .org account.

+1

I get the same error from all feddit.org posts on Voyager

I also have a lot of those failed to load media errors on feddit.org posts (from lemmy.eco.br).

I haven't been able to repro, works fine for me, android+piefed.zip+viewing ich_iel. Have you tried asking the feddit.org admins? Maybe you could send them your IP and they could investigate the logs. Its possible they are blocking the user agent/ip. Voyager should send "VoyagerApp" somewhere in the user agent for the native apps.

I believe piefed support in Voyager is very experimental at this point, so it probably shouldnโ€™t be a surprise that there are issues.

[โ€“] squirrel@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 3 weeks ago

It's not a PieFed specific problem. Only one of the accounts I checked is PieFed, the rest are Lemmy accounts.

Piefed user here. I can see pictures on !ich_iel@feddit.org while using the Voayger app.
