I was usually using https://postimages.org/ to avoid wasting instance storage , but not sure if that makes sense today.

Dunno if this helps, but I used to use a little trick in which I double-nested
![]()commands, such that the Lemmy software would produce a visible thumbnail on the fly, and then clicking on the TN would expand out the full image. So, assuming this shows up correctly for you, it would like something like:](source.img)A little confusing to look at, but it worked, needing only a single image. And then if necessary, one could produce a second thumbnail as needed, substituting that for the first image, using PixelFed.Org or whatnot for the image repository. I dunno, maybe that helps someone…

EDIT: see further down, as I’m not sure this old Lemmy trick actually works, here.
Thanks for the tip, I’m gonna have to try it out.
Hmm, I just tried to test it in the body of a test post, but couldn’t quite manage it. Either I’m not correctly remembering the trick, or I suppose the code doesn’t quite work here.
Even if it does work on PF.Social, I’m not sure if it will show up as intended from other areas of the FV…
Neat!
Interesting! Will need to experiment with.
Cheers!
Thank for the trick, i save it for the wiki :)
De rien, amigo, mais assurons-nous que ça fonctionne ici sur PF. Pour l’instant, je n’en suis pas sûr!
