    Lemmy doesn’t allow you to view images.

    What l suggest is you open an account on some Piefed instance to see the difference. You may open an account here or on Piefed social. There are some more instances open to registration. Choose one, open an account, and then operate this lemmy community from there. Only then can you notice the difference.

      Lemmy does allow images. Just seems like they’re attached some kind of different way. Now that I’m on desktop I can open that link on its own instance. And it’s actually a little aggravating, the pictures are shown enlarged by default, with no way (I can find) to collapse them? But that’s probably just the default UI or config for that instance.

      I probably might open a Piefed account someday. One of those things I’d like to get around to, that I’m not in any hurry for.

        No, that’s not by default but by a choice l’ve made in my settings. I love my piefed community that way.

        But what l wish to say is that if you’re the only responsible admin of the language community, then you would get a better UI experience to work with if you shift your community to piefed. That way your UI would change. But everything related to your community remains the same.
