Why YSK: You don’t need to load down the instance by uploading the image to the instance. You only need to know the syntax is on the following line:

![image](imageURL)

        Alright so I went on lemmy cuz I’m using both xD and I can finally see what you meant in your earlier comment. You said do
        ![image](__image_url__) right? eg. ![image](https://imgur.com/a/g3dJUyy)
        image

        and I’ll give postimages a go :) I just used imgur since I knew about it

      from what i understand, this is syntax implemented on lemmy. it’s not from the deeper ActivtyPub protocol all of these things are implementing. If that’s true, it won’t render on kbin how it does on lemmy.

      seems to work fine on viewing the image embedded on kbin for me… it doesnt expand automatically (u gotta click a little expand button to show it) but that may be a setting only somewhere on the site
