I used to regularly put images in comments by using ![](). Suddenly that does not work anymore, help!

It stopped working for me (and also another user) a few days ago. Until I post the comment it is fine but when I post it, the url of the image is getting automatically changed into a format that does not work.

Before posting it looks like this:

![](https://i.imgur.com/yFXLOOY.jpg)

However, posting it changes the url into this

![](https://lemm.ee/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FyFXLOOY.jpg)

This happens only on my lemm.ee account. I have no such issues when I use my lemmy.world account though. I will post the same image as comment in this thread to illustrate.

How did this suddenly change, I never had problems posting images in comments before?

What can I do to fix this? I like posting images in comments and would be very happy if I could go back to it?

      Ah, sorry for getting testy there, Nico.
      But what MORE do you imagine I could do, given a switch in roles, matey?

      I’m literally ‘hands tied behind my back, here’ and for what, Nico? Did I do something WRONG…?

      SO THEN-- let someone state what I did wrong, so then let’s correct it, eh…?
