    So all I need to to is add an exclamation mark to turn a link into a hotlink? It’s really that simple?

    Thank you.

      Oh, the exclamation mark and empty brackets ![] is to turn it into an embedded image. hotlinking is just using an imgur link inside the parenthesis (https://lemmy.kya.moe/imgproxy?src=www.imgur.com%2fimage.jpg) instead of the built-in lemmy photo service (https://pictrs.lemmy.world/pictrs/image/somethingsomething.webp?format=webp)

      Either way you’re welcome, always happy to be helpful!

        Yeah that’s what I meant. Same difference as far as I’m concerned.

        Thanks again.
