So when images are attached to comments from Mbin (without markdown), they will finally show up in Lemmy? Is that what this means?

yeah, someone dumb it down for us plebs

[–] Aatube@kbin.melroy.org 20 points 2 weeks ago

basically what cabbage said. same goes for mastodon posts in subs

theres a manual fix for this. in mbin, when you attach the image in a post and save, it is uploaded and shown. you can then grab the image link (right click image, copy link), edit the post, and add the link using the image tag, and save, it then shows in-line in lemmy.

yeah, it sucks but at least it works until this is implemented. ive been usin this method for over a year now..

Speaking of which... When can we finally ctrl+v paste them in from our clipboard? :(

speaking of which... when will the "upload from URL" button actually work‽
oh wait, they removed it?

...yay?

Upload from URL is pointless since you can just markdown that URL directly.

Even then pasting would also solve that issue since you can copy images from websites.
