No error message. Do I need any setup, was this discarded in LMTX, or what’s wrong?

No error message. Neither of those links are valid images themselves, they are both redirects. The following works though: \starttext \externalfigure[https://tug.org/images/logobw.jpg] \stoptext I can't seem to get the second one to work since its redirected URL is a bit odd. > Do I need any setup, was this discarded in LMTX, or what’s wrong? I have no idea if ConTeXt would ever follow redirects before, but I agree that it would be a useful feature.

But yes, following redirects or at least an error message would be nice.
