    It’s shows up for me on mobile. It says it’s a screenshot from TikTok. Maybe it doesn’t show up on desktop for some reason?

        Kbin is having thumbnail caching issues lately, and will assign thumbnails from other posts that were submitted around the same time. I feel like it’s been happening for a week or two now.

        @ernest, plz

            here’s a nsfw screenshot in case it doesn’t appear for you.

            Confirmed. Under the Linus Tech Tits post.

        Yea, there’s clearly something misconfigured over on kbin at the moment. Might be worth pinging one of the people that runs it.
