Screenshots
N/A
Environment
- iPadOS 18.6.2 using X app v11.30.1
- Latest Chrome web browser running on macOS Sequoia 15.7.1
Additional context
Note: I also downloaded the video and posted it: https://x.com/hoaxeye/status/1979237813947084844 - for some reason, the CN did not appear on a new video copy either
Test repeated on MacOS using latest Chrome browser. 1) using post video https://x.com/JanneFI/status/1979434645126029366 and 2) uploading a new copy of the video: https://x.com/JanneFI/status/1979435821171159123 Community Note does not show up on either post.

Research direction

Trace how a video and its Community Note are associated, then verify that the Note appears on all posts containing the video as described in the expected behaviour.
