    Not the dev, but lemmy.world’s uptime is very bad. I assume your broken images are from lemmy.world, since your user is located on that server. If the source is not hosting content correctly, there isn’t much that you can do client-side.

      This is probably the issue. I still think there should be something that tells the user that there is connectivity or throughput issues (progress bar or friendlier errors).
