For external links it is impossible to say what rate limits and other deeplinking protections are deployed. Obviously Reddit does not want people to use their servers for hosting images on external websites. So it might look fine to you, but other people that try to access the image URL the fist time are blocked.
Right now Lemmy seems to cache external images only for local users, if you access through a remote instance you will get the original external link.
Alright. It seems like I should upload images of I want to ensure their visibility. I'll keep testing things and learning. Thanks for the explanation.
