Seconded. My homelab is stable and I have nothing to contribute at the moment, but that doesn't mean I'm not committed to staying the hell off of Reddit.

Admins host, users don't. It's not the users' decision.

If they are a good citizen of the Fediverse

They haven't been a good citizen of the internet, why would you even give them a chance?

There are a few reasons this might be the case!

  1. The instance's UI might not be declaring that a or button element as a resource meant to be downloaded.

  2. The instance's web server might not have declared the downloadable file's mime type as a resource. (Apache, nginx.)

  3. Your operating system might not recognize the file type as a thing to be downloaded, or your browser isn't telling it to download to a file.

It's probably 1 or 2 if you're seeing the same behavior across multiple browsers and OS.
