Hi, I’m relatively new to Lemmy, but I have been posting a lot in the last few weeks.
One thing I see when I post certain website articles is the above message. The post still works, but it is missing a lot of information that other posts have.
Does someone have a link to documentation of what Lemmy is looking for when it builds a post? I would like to be able to contact the web admins of the problem website, and ask them to modify their code so that it is more “Lemmy-friendly”.
Thanks for any help you can send my way.
This is just a guess, but I’d imagine that happens because the websites use JavaScript to load the actual content of the page, but Lemmy is just parsing the HTML that is returned.
Also, I really doubt you’d have much luck convincing website authors to completely change their architecture just to get previews to work on Lemmy.
