ephraimt Yes, the current configuration is what we expect to serve going forward. That is, we are returning Content-Length on both HTTP/2 and HTTP/1.1 for these links, like we did originally. If this is currently not working for you, can you share the details of the current error you're seeing? Also, did this start and/or stop working again for you over the last month since your previous message?

    As far as I can tell, it has not worked since the original change.

    I'm not aware of any remaining issues with how we're serving these on our side. Can you elaborate on what specifically isn't behaving as expected currently? Thanks in advance!
