I replied up above about this. If you visit my profile right now and hit posts, you'll get the message. I made a post in /c/test with a link for an image at http://192.168.1.5/image.png

The app tries to pre-load images. If it makes a request to an internal IP, then iOS automatically triggers this. I'll see how I can completely disable this or if I need to just filter these out.

For the record, this appears to happen in other apps as well so if you want to test it on other apps, feel free 👍
