screenshot preview missing from spectacle capture popup

Whenever I take a screenshot, doesn't matter if rectangular region, active window, current desktop etc, the popup near the tray area that confirms the operation is not showing the preview of the screenshot anymore, just an icon in its place (see attachment).

UPD:
After some tests on kde neon testing (plasma 6.2) and unstable (6.2.80) I can say it looks like distro bug
On kde neon all works perfectly

UPD 2
Uninstalling gdk-pixbuf-thumbnailer
But it's not really good solution 
Gwenview and many other programs use it 
As I understand it, the logic is that in the absence of this plugin, the preview rendering is transferred to plasma
But,how I said earlier,it's not good solution 

So,and some other users they report that everything works fine for them even with the installed gdk-pixbuf-thumbnailer
I will continue to look for the reason. 

I also came across a related discussion just related to dolphin
