    Lemmy comments support markdown, so if you paste the link inside brackets like this:

    It shows up as the actual GIF, like this:

    I guess it's just my instance, but your post doesn't show an inline image to me.

    That's weird. What kind of frontend are you using?

    Firefox.

    I think the instance (infosec.pub) re-wrote the URL, but either did it wrong, or didn't also successfully mirror the image.

    Looks like infosec.pub is also hosting the default lemmy frontend. I'm asking because there are alternative lemmy frontends, like Alexandrite.

    But yeah it seems infosec.pub also uses some kind of image proxy. When I call the URL you commented, it gives me an error about validation, so maybe that is broken somehow
