I know it doesn’t help now but imgur cannot be counted on. Does your instance still not allow uploads? Maybe an alt for that?
Man, I love our instance. Traditionally I’ve not wanted to burden it by doubling it as an image-host, but then again, if the instance goes down, then this sub goes down, so… yeah. There’s that.
Beyond that, there’s indeed a cap of 500k here per image, whereas Imgur sits at ~1,000k, and sometimes that’s a critical difference. Point is, I generally upload a set of images at a time, which (in this theoretical) would usually require me to parse the content across both lemm.ee and Imgur in order to fit all content (i.e. images over 500k), which… would tend to be an utter PITA when posting. So there’s also that.
All that’s on top of the fact that almost every post I make requires me to reformat the images, often leaning in to upscaling tools. Again, it gets to be a right PITA…
Mateys, I really do love chatterboxing BD, and would probably be posting multiple times per day if these issues weren’t such a slog, on top of dealing with this cursed disease. (CFS/ME)
Anyway, let’s see how I might be able to share from my Google Drive. For example, HERE is my Jim Benton collection, and below are some sharing possibilities:
Well, shut my mouth and spank my bottom! That seems to work, right? Can anyone else see that second cartoon?
On my end, working with just that one Google image URL, it’s (fluff my goldurn life) this:

Bloody, flippen’ hell, mate!!
Hello, thanks for your ongoing image stuggles~
On Alexanderite, the second comic shows:
However on Boost and the default Lemmy front end it does not:
So at this point I only access the Lemmysphere via desktop Chrome (yeah, I’m dumb), but to be clear, it’s the lead thumb/image (toilet paper) which I manually uploaded to our native server/instance for the purposes of this post.
The only other pic I’ve attempted to display is the nine-panel one, but on Boost and Sync apps, it sounds like that’s broken?
So… what happens in Boost & Sync when you tap on that godforsaken google drive link I shared above? Does it show up…?
Thanks folks for helping me out, here!
@can@sh.itjust.works
Okay, then yes - I can see it all! I can see the title post, AND the 9 panel shows up. Clicking the link also loads the picture in Boost.
Great, thanks! ^^
On Sync it looks similar to boost when viewing the post but the second comic appears as the post thumbnail that I can view in full by holding on it.
Wait, I’m confused. About something. I’ll leave this up so you can look.
