Why is my Steemit article picture not showing on LinkedIn?
As a new Steemian, I am still trying to figure out some of the features of this platform. Yesterday, I published an article on Steemit on a recent Crypto Meetup I had attended and wanted to share it with my network on both LinkedIn and Twitter.
Usually, when you share an article from the web on LinkedIn, it will identify the picture in the link provided and include it in the post. However, as I was sharing my Steemit article on LinkedIn, I noticed that the link didn’t include any of the “native” pictures.

I then went on and shared that same article on Twitter, and the picture did in fact appear in the post as generally happens with most articles from the web.

Not sure if the issue is with LinkedIn, Steemit or with my browser. If you could help me understand what’s wrong with my post that would be really appreciated.

Hi Mathias,
If the picture shows in Twitter I say the problem is probably with LinkedIn.
I had the same thing happening recently. Not sure whether to worry too much about this though - most people only read the first phrase of the post and if someone wants to read further it will click on the link and be taken to Steemit where he'll see the picture
