The only problem with your image above is that the link to is broken. If you insert an existing URL from web, it will work.
Not sure why your uploads don't work though.
Its an existing URL. I added the exclamation as described.
Thanks anyways. Big Fan :)
Here's the URL in your comment:
If you try to open it directly, you'll see an error, when you should be seeing an image.
I see a couple issues with it.
Firstly, URL contains an image proxy. Now, I'm not sure how exactly Lemmy works and if those are necessary, but my comments don't have those (on most clients you can use an option to see the raw comment text).
Secondly, that imgflip URL leads to a page and not to a direct image, which causes issues. If you link the direct image URL like so:
The result is:
Regarding the podcast you linked, I'm in no way associated with it, if that's what you thought. I'm just using an account on StarTrek.website Lemmy instance because I'm a fuckin' nerd. 🖖
Bro. IDK WTF and the existing link was my attempt at the suggestion, not my original link which was like...
This
I add an exclamation and...
This is the link you're using:
(I also noticed that you switched to using another image
8zyq0dvs8zykr0, so I'll switch as well to avoid confusion)It's not a direct link to an image. Use a direct link to an image:
As you can see, the URLs are different:
i." in front ofimgflip.com.jpg" at the end
Try copy-pasting this exact line:
and you should get:
Now, IDK why your client adds the proxy, but I hope that it's not breaking anything. We will know once you try.
https://i.imgflip.com/8zykr0.jpg
I really appreciate your time, but I don't know technically why I'm doing this, why it works, or how to replicate it going forward. Pretty annoyed with the inability to simply paste or upload.
No problem. If you have more questions, feel free to ask.
I used Sync back in Reddit days, but not on Lemmy, so IDK if that's Sync's fault or your instance's*. Try another client? I'm currently using Voyager. It's like Apollo for iOS, but free.
Installed and logged in using Sync. Same issue, but says, "Could not upload image."
If I copy and paste it says, "Sync pasted from your clipboard." but nothing happens.
Bummer for sure.
