@slazer2au shoot, I thought it would just embed the image into the post on lemmy since the link ended in .jpg. That's what #ZappDit and other NOSTR clients do.

I'll have to learn what the command is to do so from Mastodon. Similarly for putting a link to article in the title instead having to have it show in text in the post.

Friendica is so much better than Mastodon, but I post at work and for some reason corporate IT decided to block libranet.de as if it's a malware site.

I think the two platforms interpret links differently. In Lemmy you need to enclose the link in some special formatting to show it inline while MD likely just sees the image link and goes OK render image.

@slazer2au in Friendica we can use BBCode [img=url]image discription[/url] I think Pleroma does similar, but I'm not aware of any way to do that in Mastodon (it really is the worst platform on the 'verse)
