Not sure if this is the right place, or if it’s been done before but:

I’ve been doing this for a while now and figured I’d add this tip in case other people find it helpful.

Instead of uploading images to lemmy world and taking up disk space, when I have an image I want to add, I right click and copy link.

Then paste the link inside () after writing ![] like so:

![](www.google.com/image.jpg)

It becomes second nature pretty quickly.

EDIT: ok so to avoid hotlinking, upload/copy the image to catbox, and then use the technique described above.

    If it’s our own picture, should we use imgur instead of uploading it here? I hadn’t done it that way because I wasn’t sure if that would let the picture be an expandable thumbnail or if you’d have to click through to imgur to see it

    Edit: another question, I see the post language marked as English, when should I be selecting a language for my posts and/or comments, or is it not necessary
