      You can. Most instances run image hosting too.

        Oh, do you need the “!” in front of the link? I tried something like that at first and it showed nothing

          That’s standard Markdown syntax for embedded links: instead of linking, just show the content. Usually only for images but I think some sites will allow audio (and video?!) embeds as well.

      Next time you can just upload the image and it will embed it in your comment.

      FWIW your link worked just fine. Also disallowing hotlinking is the decision of the web server hosting the image, not Lemmy.
