If none of the 4 supported opengraph image sources exist, maybe a screenshot of the page would be a nice fallback.

Research direction

Start by inspecting how the service handles its four supported OpenGraph image sources and how it generates optimized images. The issue names no files or tests, so the screenshot mechanism and its feasibility need to be established first. Done would mean a page screenshot is returned as a fallback when none of the four sources exists.
