      Lack of content on lemmy so we go to reddit to find more. Linking to reddit images is easier than hosting them on lemmy by a few clicks and it let’s reddit bear the brunt of the server costs without getting any content, comments, engagement, or other data to mine for their trouble.

      Should I not?
