Is there a way to easily add photos to comments? I’m using the IOS version, curious is anyone had any suggestions.

      Oh hell yeah, thanks man. I don’t suppose there’s a way to upload from my photos library?

        Haven’t used Mlem much lately but no I don’t think so. Not in a comment. You’d have to upload in the new post field and copy the url or just upload to a 3rd party like https://thumbsnap.com

          Yep, we don’t have this functionality just yet.

          To clarify - you’d have to upload the image to your instance in the browser, not within Mlem’s post creator. Mlem doesn’t provide a way of copying the URL of an image you attach to a post. And if you never post the image you attached, Mlem will request that your instance deletes the image.

        Not currently, no. We’re aware of this feature and are tracking it here.

        You would need to upload the photos someplace else like Imgur or another option that allows you to directly link to the image, then use the direct link they provide (should end with the file extension).
