Thumbnails and preview text not working for youtube links (on some instances)

Hi blahaj folks,

I've noticed that new posts containing YouTube links no longer import the video thumbnail or appropriate text from the destination link.

The problem seems to be occurring and ongoing on some instances (blahaj, beehaw, lemmy.ml), while other instances seem to be working just fine (lemmy.sdf.org, ukfli.uk).

I found this post in the Lemmy Support community that mentions the problem, including references to the working and non-working instances. One comment suggests that it may be a problem with a German cloud provider called Hetzner (which may explain why the preview text of each YouTube link appears to be in German).
