Repeating this from an earlier comment.

On Sync v.redd.it links don’t work. When I open the link externally it does work.

Regardless of this, can we not directly link to v.redd.it on Lemmy? Seems counterintuitive to the cause if we’re still giving them traffic.

As far as I know, many people prefer to upload photos and videos to third party resources in order to reduce the load on the Lemmy instance.

In addition, many instance do not allow uploading videos and you have to find a place where you can upload a video so that a third-party service can provide a direct link to the file.

Regarding video support in your app. Check your firewall. If reddit domains are blocked, you need to allow them. In case your app does not play videos from any sources - write about it to the developer of the app github.com/laurencedawson/sync-for-lemmy/issues

    Thank you for the report, I hope it gets resolved. I don’t mind having to click out for the time being. I unfortunately have no alternative for video hosting, but that’s a good one

    Seems like using Reddit resources while not giving them traffic is a pretty decent option?

    Can you please use the sync specific communities to report errors instead of a random post? Trying not to be rude but I blocked the sync communities because of all the spam and hype, I don’t want to read random error reports.

    Did you not read the last paragraph?
