Can confirm. Not related to any particular Plasma release though; looks like NOAA changes the URLs again. :/
Some POTD providers' URL are blocked (flickr, wikipedia) or very slow (unsplash) in China. In case of network issues or provider issues, we should show users some information instead of a black screen.
The original page in NOAA provider doesn't load images. Should images in this page be used for POTD? https://www.nesdis.noaa.gov/satellites-image-of-the-day
Oh, it can be loaded. Just need to change the regular expression.
Here is the patch https://phabricator.kde.org/D24727
