It can take many minutes but it should show up, at least it did when I tested.
I'm not sure why it isn't at your end, sorry I can't help more 🙁
Might be worth talking to your server admin if they know anything about this?
@FediTips@social.growyourown.services If the preview still doesn’t show up when I’m not logged into my mastodon account then logically it wouldn’t have anything to do with the server I’m on, right?
Maybe an Apple issue. Do you use Apple tech to view?
@stephaniepixie@fandom.garden
I don't use Apple but that (as far as I know) should't have an effect.
The preview shows up or not regardless of whether you're logged in or not. It's not connected to being logged in.
@FediTips@social.growyourown.services Correct, preview doesn’t show on the Tyee Mastodon account when I do a search for “Tyee Mastodon” (on various web browsers) and click on their account while logged out of Mastodon. And it also doesn’t show when I’m logged in on any device or Mastodon platform.
I’m trying to figure out the common denominator. Only thing I could think of was I use only Apple devices 🤷♀️

I'm not sure what else to suggest except doing a test post (maybe as a DM) with the link in it and leaving it for a longer period of time, then going back to it and refreshing the page.
If it still doesn't work after all that, I don't know what to suggest 😅
@FediTips@social.growyourown.services I’ve been following their account for a year and even months later their links still don’t show previews 😄
Thank you for trying. It will remain a mystery.
@stephaniepixie@fandom.garden
I don't mean their account's posts, I mean if you post a link from their website on your account. That should show previews 🙂
@FediTips@social.growyourown.services I’ll try but I doubt it’ll be different. Why would that be the only link that takes longer than 30 minutes?
@stephaniepixie@fandom.garden
As far as I know, it's their account that is doing something weird in the way it posts that stops previews appearing on their own posts. (I'm guessing it's possibly social media management software of some kind.)
If you copy the link and insert it into one of your own posts, I'm guessing that would work if you give it a bit of time?
