Certain characters don't display correctly in link previews

Open youngchief-btw opened this issue 5 years ago • 3 comments

Description Hubs won't show "ツ" correctly in link previews, not sure if this applies to other characters as well

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to any Hubs room
  2. Make a new object with the link (ex. https://discord.gg/myuyJqH), so you can have a link preview
  3. Once link preview has loaded
  4. See error

Expected behavior It loads as it would in a browser, which would not show a NULL character

Looks like the screenshot service we use doesn't have fonts for some languages. The japanese language wikipedia is broken too: https://ja.wikipedia.org/

The screenshot service in question is photomenmonic: https://github.com/MozillaReality/photomnemonic Since it's just an AWS lambda script, it's hard to say if we have the ability to install additional fonts on that infrastructure.

Wouldn't it just be loading the fonts when importing in CSS?
