@squareclouds Can you download the video and just embed a .mp4 file?
I don't know what advantage TikTok embeds would have, would seem like more downsides to me, both in your cost of trying to make it work, and user privacy.
Don't know if YouTube is any better, but that might give you a way to compare if you think this is a Cloudron setup issue, or just an issue with the way browsers work with what you're trying to do.

@marcusquinn not doable, I need the server to work with tiktok by its own. its not 1 video, any user can embed a tiktok, so potentially its hundreds. we also have spotify, youtube, vimeo, twitter, soundcloud and instagram embeds, all working fine. all simple things have already been tested and compared, thats why i am here. at some point I didnt know what to test anymore

After the extensive amount of discussion in this thread, if you haven't solved it and you still want help from the community, maybe you should share the URL of the site running on Cloudron.
Forum posts get indexed by search engines, so probably share a temporary alias which gets removed later.
Also I think I read you don't have the non-Cloudron site running. If that's correct, may I suggest you get one running again for the point of comparison, and of course share its URL (or rather an alias if needed).
Otherwise people trying to help are just guessing.

@squareclouds I replied now. But the site you sent me (which I think you said is hosted externally?) doesn't work either. It has the same errors. Sent you a screenshot.

@timconsidine thats why @girish asked me already to send the link to the cloudron support email after i already posted it here and he removed it, since i said technically i am not allowed (signed non-disclosure agreement) to be showing it yet. so for now i will wait for his response and thank you all for your guesses.

Alright, found the problem. By default, we set the
Referrer-Policyassame-origin(see also https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/4546/referrer-policy-header-is-overwritten) . On safari alone, having this header makes TikTok videos not play. Changing it tounsafe-urlmakes it work.@squareclouds An app can change this header. In the LAMP app, edit the
apache/app.conf. Add a lineHeader set Referrer-Policy "unsafe-url"and restart the app. That seems to make it work. Can you confirm?See also:

I have to add that maybe
strict-origin-when-cross-originis a better value and maybe other values make it work as well. So, might be worth testing what works best for your site. Unfortunately, I lost access to the Mac by now. -

thank you! i am trying it right now from the web terminal but it says app.conf is not writeable.
- i opened the app terminal
- went to app/code/apache
- opened the app.conf with nano
- made the change
- but i cannot save
do i have to stop the app and use ssh?

It's in
/app/data/apache. You can use the Filemanager . Code is always readonly in Cloudron.
i will leave it as 'strict-origin-when-cross-origin'
