I’m trying to submit a direct link on lemmyshitpost but not one of my attempts has yielded a direct image link that actually plays the giffeo.
The gif
Links I’ve tried so far:
https://i.imgur.com/6VfBQfa (obviously not right)
https://i.imgur.com/6VfBQfa.gif (doesnt play)
https://i.imgur.com/6VfBQfa.webm (doesn’t load)
https://i.imgur.com/6VfBQfa.gifv (doesn’t anything)
https://i.imgur.com/6VfBQfa.mp4 (nope)
Anyone know how to direct link to an Imgur giffeo?
Yes, it’s very possible to embed in the body of the post but the header is just a link. Unfortunately, Lemmy just doesn’t seem interested in fetching the giffeos to embed for the folks looking to doomscroll. I’m upset that streamable isn’t fetched either, but less so. I actually had the links in the body of my post ![opened]() at first in order to make my question more explicit but it made this post nigh unreadable.
I had some fun playing with the title to see whether I could get it to display any markdown and was surprised at how much it could offer. No links in the title, though. Lemmy devs cleaned that.
