The image is hosted on a different site. Personally I feel like a dedicated image hosting site is more likely to be around in a year than the average Lemmy instance, so I’ll probably use links over direct uploads most if the time. I already have at least one post of a direct upload that no longer has the image
Yeah that’s my comment 😀 And as I and the other person pointed out, the image isn’t on a Lemmy instance, it’s coming straight from imgflip and just getting embedded in the comment

The image link example in my comment specifically pulls the image from imgflip, it doesn’t end up on a Lemmy instance at any point
Sorry, that was supposed to be in reply to this comment. This is the second time Jerboa has done this to me
