The whole images database debacle with Lemmy is kind of a big deal, and I have never seen an announcement about it, but I'm on team turning it off on a small instance like blahaj.zone. It's too much data and this instance is too small to afford that kind of server space. Plus, unless things have changed, there is basically no real server panel for controlling the image database and admins basically have to manage it manually. Which is something that is pretty daunting for some admins.
So yeah, fuck the image support, use imgur, if you're a blahaj user.
Or use pixelfed.
Yeah okay but consider: hosting images costs Ada money, and that's good.
Well it does mean I'm restricted to text even on c/196
Which might justify why I break the rule now.
