I’m using Thunder for an app. Does lemmy allow only links or can I actually upload directly? If upload is allowed, how?

I think this better fits in !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml
I don’t use Thunder so I can’t also answer your question, sorry
Ah i wonder if I can move discussion there after creating, will remember for next time
Lemmy lets you upload images, directly to
lemmy.mlin your case.Front-ends like Alexandrite (that I’m currently using) haven’t integrated it yet - it only gives you the choice of URL, Its may be the same with Thunder - there’s an active Community here
Thanks, let me try either web or jerboa
You can also update Thunder, latest version should have image uploading for posts, but not comments yet.
More improvements are in progress for posting and commenting.
I am also curious. Especially whether there’s some Lemmy-specific feature, or if it’s just up to the way you connect, and some apps are integrating with an image service directly.
It varies by instance. Lemmy.ee has a low cap on image upload size because it’s a small instance, but I think lemmy.world allows uploads of a larger size.
You can also use another image hosting site like imgur or pixelfed and link from those in the URL section of your post.
This is not a lemmy tech support community, check out !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml or Thunder’s own community
Thunder doesn’t support uploading images yet it seems.
Latest version does. OP may need to update, or switch to the play store version.
