Here, I'll copy/paste it.
With Imgur and Reddit having all the silly restrictions, I'm not sure why more people don't upload their images directly to Lemmy?
I always feel bad for uploading anything here because I feel like I'm wasting precious space. Yes I know it probably doesn't matter at all but still.
Thank you π
I really don't understand why a user base predisposed to Lemmy is okay with using a proprietary centralized service that isn't globally accessible. I might understand it if Lemmy didn't support image uploads, but it does.
It's like you're not okay with your text being censored by private corporations and governments, but here, take my images and please make sure some people can't see it.
I get that some probably have muscle memory for certain services but it just seems like the majority here don't even care to unlearn it.
Probably just habit. Or maybe a bot account?
I'm in England, so maybe the government have blocked it ππ Sign of things to come I guess
