Media Button glitch when trying to embed Reddit pages.

I've noticed this over the past couple of days. Instead of properly embedding the clip or gif from a reddit page in a viewing window, the site now just posts a link instead.
Here's an example below:

Embedding from imgur still seems to be work properly though:

Ever think that maybe they disabled it due to abuses here? Hopefully they'll soon disable Imgur too.

Or maybe their lawyer finally got to them on their culpability for copyright violations when they host stolen material.

I've seen a few sites blocked in recent months ... embedded links changed to ***'s or SPAMPOST or similar. I've asked for a few more to be added to that list. Some sites seems to have been disabled in other ways.

I've also read accounts from some members who seem to have lost the ability to post any images at all, from anywhere. Not sure if those are imposed by Lit or just some browser glitch at the User end.

Yet members continue to flout the image posting rules.

No confirmation from Admin on any of this though, so we don't kow it Lit is doing it proactively, or if the other sites are requesting/demanding it.

This site is rife with revenge porn and copyright violations when it comes to pictures so I doubt they are blocking any sites for any reason.
Its going to be hilarious when the RP material they think they're immune to bites them in the ass.
