Why YSK: You don’t need to load down the instance by uploading the image to the instance. You only need to know the syntax is on the following line:

![image](imageURL)

    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
    ![image](__image_url__) right? eg. ![image](https://imgur.com/a/g3dJUyy)
    image

    and I’ll give postimages a go :) I just used imgur since I knew about it

      The image you use can only be an image. Imgur broke this functionality because it is trackerware/spyware/stalkerware. Use this to upload your image: https://postimages.org/ then after it posts, right click or select the image and view it in a new tab. Copy the URL from this tab and use it. That will work because the URL will be for just an image file only.
