I get bio-pic instead of hero pic of quoted article when using i.fx... on Telegram #1110

Description

This is how I expect to see a tweet with a link to an article with a 'hero' picture.

When I deploy the i.fx.... link variant, I get indeed an Instant View in Telegram. But the main picture shown is from the twitter bio of the OP, not from the article linked to in the quoted tweet.

Request: picture shown in preview/instant view of tweet source should be (in order of availability):

  • from article linked to in quoted tweet
  • from quoted tweet
  • from article linked to in tweet
  • from tweet

In all cases, never the bio pic.
