Images are not showing up (loading) in recyclerview after implementing Endless scroll (Pagination)

I have implemented an EndlessScroll for RecyclerView (Only Images in it) or we can say Pagination but after implementing it I don't know why the images are not loading up from Firebase

So I tried to include a placeholder image from my adapter class but the default placeholder image is not showng up too

BTW before asking this SO Q I asked a Q to how to implement Pagination with StaggeredGridLayoutManager but after implementing the answer to my Orignal question there are no errors but the images are showing up This is the Question link for reference on how I implemented the pagination in my recycler view - How to implement endless scroll (pagination) in recyclerview with StaggeredGridLayoutManager

Here is the code

Home_Fragment.java // for those who are referencing my original question which I put a link above,this is a different fragment than my original question in the original question I have included Profile_Fragment.java, but because that file is much longer,I have included this because it has less code compared to the orignal

private boolean loading = true;
    private int pastVisibleItems, visibleItemCount, totalItemCount;
