My images don't load on mobile

My images don't load on mobile when I visit my website that uses dropbox direct photo links. The desktop site works fine.

    Hi all, 

     

    As you may have seen, this issue is now resolved and a fix was rolled out earlier this week 🎉

    Let us know if you have any questions.

I am using Dropbox images in posts I make to SMF bulletin boards.  I have noticed recently that the images appear fine when viewed from Windows 10 but are missing under iOS.  There is a suggestion that the problem may be related to too many redirects and could be a Dropbox problem.  You will find a fuller description of this issue and an example at https://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=577082.0  I am using the standard version of Dropbox.

I've encountered an instance of a link that I had edited with dl.dropboxusercontent now displaying the same behavior. 

 

so that seems to a be a temporary fix.

    What befuddles me is that a member of our photo forum who could no longer see his images in Safari also asked friends with older Macs that have not been updated in years to check his links. They also couldn’t see the shared images. If this problem is caused by an Apple security update for Safari, why does it also impact old machines no longer getting any updates?

    Moved over to imagekit. 

     

    Dropbox doesn't seem interested in even addressing this, much less helping.
