Every time when a YouTube video is embedded in Lemmy, a bot appears, suggesting to use Front-end Piped (or another) instead of YT, which is certainly recommended, due to YouTube's inherent privacy concerns.
However, then it is not understandable, why in the case of images Imgur links are happily allowed, which is infinitely worse in terms of privacy, which shares user and usage data with the worst existing advertising companies, which makes it in little less than spyware.
As a suggestion I present 2 alternatives, which in addition to, as EU products, strictly adhere to the GDPR standard and even more.
As the main FileCoffee service, this, apart from images, supports ALL types of files, whether multimedia, video, documents, presentations or texts. Supports 15 MB/file and with optional registration to also use it as a personal host (100% free with mail, password) up to 30 MB/file, encrypted. Inclusions script one click for ShareX on Windows or MagicCap on Linux or Mac
The second is vgy.me, also privacy oriented, but supports only images, encryption, 20 MB/image, EXIF Data are removed, API for web pages.
In your first post of Pixeldrain ther wasent an 1.avif file, but one with the extension jxl and a broken image icon. Now you say it's a simple jpg, which naturally can be opened even with the obsolete paint. Anyway, I don't want to download an image or file to see it, here we speak about image sharing with embed code to insert in Lemmy or other sites, like I do it with the screenshots I make, the direct link of files from File Coffee open the file/image in a new tab, where you can see it there, without the UI fom the FileCoffee or VGY https://file.coffee/u/rLLXM247jRr4mIuzQwavr.webm
Nope. I never said that. But I did put before you a challenge to open that, perfectly functional, jpg in your browser...the one you've never had problems with when opening images.
Nor do I and I don't. As the second screen capture, saved as an avif, showed you: my Firefox handles jxl just fine due to the add-in. And beta versions, like Firefox Nightly, handle the format natively.
Me too. But I found FileCoffee didn't support my first jxl screen capture of the NoScript report of FileCoffee's javas use. A disappointment, when you had said it "supports ALL types of files".
