So now that Lemmy and the community overall are getting a lot of attention, with /c/memes being one of the biggest communities across instances, I think we should be a bit more strict about certain things.
I’d like your opinion, though. What do you think about a rule about only allowing images, and that such images need to be uploaded to Lemmy instead of linking to something like Imgur. I think that text and videos are a better fit for some other community (at least until we get something where we are able to play videos within Lemmy).
Oh, might be right, yeah.
But still, devs should implement showing videos/images from other services to show up here inline, instead of having to click the link!
I think that’s implemented but it’s something specific to Imgur which blocks from viewing and which may require you to code something specifically for Imgur rather than it being a universal thing. On Reddit it works because it was created to be used there.
oh yeah, only if it link directly to an image, not the imgur link itself (which makes sense)
