When I try to post, it uploads and generates a link but it doesn’t show up in the post. Is this a platform limitation?

      You can hotlink gifs. Don’t upload them since it will load them in the video player. It you use

      ![](gif url here)

      that will hotlink the gif.

          I don’t even know how to properly configure it on my own instance. I thought I had configured it properly to handle large gifs, but then it still doesn’t work sometimes for some random reason.

          Doesn’t make it easier that lemmy uses pictrs 4 when pictrs 5 is currently the stable version. But I have no idea if Lemmy can handle that.
