According to the debate, they had their reasons. But still -- when one hundred and eighty six nations say one thing, and two say another, you have to wonder about the two.

But you can to imgur, grab the direct image URL and then embed it as such:

![alt text - optional](URL)

And to make a button:

[![alt text - optional](image URL)](on-click destination URL)

Example:
FMHY

In this case the image is just 0.9kB, so to save an unnecessary request to Imgur, I used data URI with base64. You can't do this with larger images due to comment size limitations. Just imagine a normal URL in there.

Thank you. I would like to avoid getting an imagur account.

That just may mean less engagement in Lemmy from this Lemming.

You can upload to imgur without an account.

Use a different instance?

I specifically mentioned Imgur as it doesn't need an account for that matter, but you can use any image host you'd like.
