I just noticed today that in ~music, the "topic-info-source" metadata isn't visible in listings; it shows the author name instead. Clicking through to the post it's clear that it's been scraped, it just doesn't get a site name or favicon.
eg: Youtube link on ~movies versus Youtube link on ~music
Is this intentional? It sorta makes it look like everything on ~music is a text post.
