I use Inoreader and I've noticed that the RSS feed for lemmy.ml has proper thumbnails/previews for images while the lemmy.world feed doesn't show any images (just links for the posted images). I contacted Inoreader to see if the problem was on their end. I received the following feedback:

Actually, we've already checked that, but unfortunately, we couldn't improve the image preview for the exmapled feeds. The thing is that the provided links to these images are not properly presented in the feed source, which is causing that. We suggest you address this with the feed publishers.

What settings need to be changed so that the images are "properly presented"?

The instances may have different versions of the Lemmy software, which may be causing the inconsistencies.

I use the feeds Open RSS provides for Lemmy and looks like it includes images. If it doesnt, just hit them up and ask if they can implement. They're pretty chill and resolve RSS feed issue pretty quickly.

Thanks, I'll try that feed. And good call on the software version. Looks like lemmy.ml is on v0.19.1 and lemmy.world is v0.18.5. So maybe it will be fixed when they update. I'll keep an eye on it.
