Just reporting anecdotally, we’ve seen some weird inconsistent Instagram oneboxing lately. A couple cases recently where we see the preview image failing to display and then a day later or something seems to work. This happened even for one of our own IG videos that we’d recently posted and displayed perfectly fine on [instagram.com](http://instagram.com)

I suspect there may just be some jankiness with the Instagram API unfortunately…
