yeah could be. fuck'em we will download the videos anyways.
Or some measure against bots.
on telegram plays nice, no problem
So it might be some issue with the SN fetching method.
To detect if a link is an image or a video, we used to load it on your browser and then load it again to show it to you. That was wasteful, and we now detect if a link is an image or a video with a microservice, for better reliability.
That worked! Our microservice was able to detect that the link was a video (by downloading its first bytes) and the editor indeed tried to load it.
Loading media happens client-side and in your browser, basically just <video src="https://video.twimg..." />. Probably Twitter/X reads the origin of the request (stacker.news) and rejects it with 403 (Forbidden).
I'll check this out, maybe there's more to it, and come back with results.
fixed for you. Now you can't unsee it :)
I was lazy to download it... we should avoid as much is possible using twatter links.
WTF! Put it back the way it was.
