Description

Environment:

  • OS: iOS 17.0.3
  • IceCubesApp version: 1.8.5

Description

For some posts, Ice Cubes won't display images at all. There's no error or any other indication that an image is supposed to be there.

For example, this post demonstrates the issue: https://mastodon.world/@Thoogah/111211707822842407
None of the images from that account will show up in Ice Cubes. I've seen the problem with other accounts from that server as well.

In the web interface, images show up as normal.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the missing images from the linked Mastodon post on iOS 17.0.3 with Ice Cubes 1.8.5, then compare the same post in the web interface. Done means images from the affected accounts and server display in the app without losing the surrounding post content.
