Community-edition: Unable to load images from HTTP links on HTTPS Website | Policy "Mixed Content" too high

[unixfox]

Steps to reproduce

1. Paste an HTTP image on a chat service (for example RocketChat).
2. No preview is displayed from the image.
   

   Expected behavior

Electron should load the image like the Chromium browser does:

Mixed Content: The page at 'https://demo.rocket.chat/channel/general' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure image 'http://i.imgur.com/dZXZC92.png'. This content should also be served over HTTPS.

Actual behavior

Electron is blocking the request due to the high policy of Mixed content:

Mixed Content: The page at 'https://demo.rocket.chat/channel/general' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure image 'http://i.imgur.com/dZXZC92.png'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.

ENVIRONMENT

Rambox: 0.4.1

OS: ArchLinux

Arch: x64

I'm having the same issue with TinyTinyRSS. Would be great if you could fix it, but it being an issue with electron itself I highly doubt it :/

Any news about this issue ?

@DeltaEvolution This will be fixed in next release.

[MrChick]

I know I shouldn't ask... so sorry that I do... but... any hint as to when you're going to release 0.4.3? I've been wanting this since the day I started using Rambox... 😀

Hopefully next week.
