YSK - for all the things that can make your life easier!
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.
All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.
Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:
**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- The majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Trying now. Thank you.
Interestingly,when commenting to your post the "!" Displayed in your post changed to "!" for me.
I tried both and "!" worked.
Yeah you got it. I assume you removed that ending tracker token from the link
I'm not well versed in the technical mysteries of the internet yet.
hat would it look like ?
The link should end in a typical image file type like JPEG. The link you first uploaded had a image type followed by a "?(random characters here)" The last bit is a tacking token.
We just need better Markdown syntax. Somethi g like GitHub's Markdown would be top notch. Massive bonus would be the ability to preview message.
Alternatively run your own instance and do instance operators a favor.
Sauce?
It's from the Manga Berserk
Yep, just the most recent page I had open from reading it.
Bookmarked Thanks for sharing
Think I got it. Although my post shows up fine on the Web version of lemmy.world but not in Jerboa.
Helpful to know! Thanks!
url like this? I typed
I don't know completely what you mean. I'm on kbin, so currently for me it shows a blue link "image" but it doesn't seem to do anything when I click it. Wonder if it looks different on lemmy
Only change the imageURL part
I have to type escapes for the first 2 elements to be able to display them visually, so if you see them because of differences in markup you know why.
This is a screenshot of the official documentation hosted externally:
This is with escapes to display what I used above:
maybe kbin is too young to be able to do what you're describing? I'll put a screenshot of what I can see (desktop for kbin.social)
screenshot https://imgur.com/a/g3dJUyy
(btw will you type exactly the command you put, maybe with the code `` option)?
Lol. I'm on Graphene OS so all the imgur trackers are blocked and I can't see anything from them.
FYI this website has the simple functionality imgur used to have before they started all the trackerware nonsense:
This is the documentation link that has all the syntax for posting pics in comments and more:
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
 right? eg. 
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.
yeah I think you're right. I went on lemmy and it looked a little different haha
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
I never knew that. Cool!
Let's try. Fail expected:
Gifs don't work
But...
This is what happens when I try it 🤷🏼♂️
I wanna try this too, seems really cool.
Hopefully there's some improvement to this, I've yet to get it to work, just shows my link with the final ) as part of it instead of an image.
You can also put the image url as the url for your post and it can expand when the thumbnail is clicked as if it was uploaded to your instance.
Doesn't work on Jerboa ☹️ At least I now know why my feed seems to be filled with these html image links.
I don't think imgur will work since they hide the direct links to images on mobile (no png, jpeg, etc.)
Wow it worked.
Apologies to the owner of the image. I just copied one of the URLs in this thread and used it.
