A problem on Firefox in the past month - older embeds are rendered as blank spaces, but recent embeds are fine.

On Chrome I think some embedded videos appear as https links instead?

can you post a link to an example of an older embed?

This page for example:

music videos where they blurred out stuff

Posts #2 and #5 are both meant to have Youtube videos - http embeds maybe - but they display differently by browser:

Chrome (signed out) = URL link https://www.youtube, etc
Chrome (logged in) = blank space. Same on Android afaik
Mozilla Firefox = nothing, no text, link or space

I've also put a GIF link, with "img" formatting, which only shows up as a URL link - but that's only on Chrome when signed out. (Similar to the YT vids.)
Thanks Koogs!

the blurred videos are https links like https:// www.youtube.com / watch ? v=xxxxx

which show up fine in firefox with pictures off! but, yes, were missing this morning using android firefox.

Maybe I have to make it more obvious.

This is what I'm seeing, on Firefox and Android. Actually, Android is worse, because there are big blank spaces where the videos would be.

Chrome seems to be converting the embeds to appear as https links for users not logged in. Usually they appear as embeds when I'm logged in on Chrome, but today it's not even that – just blank spaces, same as Android.

(This is only for embeds 12+ months old. New embeds are fine.)

Ah, and this is the same page on Chrome (when logged out), with the https links
