Boost fails to open .mp4 for me. When I browse “All” there usually is some mp4 content, especially from … well … nsfw instances. Theese almost always fail and I see just black screen. Firefox on mobile opens it without a problem and so does Sync For Lemmy. Do you have this issue or is it just me? F.e. can you open this link?

FFmpeg and MPV can’t play it at all:

Lemmy should not let people upload corrupted files in the first place.
