I’m not sure. In fact, where’d you get that link? The page here (I’m using kbin, FWIW) just links to https://lemmy.kya.moe/imgproxy?src=preview.redd.it%2fgcdh211grbib1.jpg - which then does the shoddy trick I mentioned, serving up a page instead of the image file the URL promises so it can nag you for cookies and registration.
On Lemmy, you can normally click the picture which would then appear. When hovering over that picture, the link of the picture would be the one I pointed above.
In any case, I removed the Reddit link and replaced it with the other one just to be safe.
Interesting.
Actually, it seems that the picture was automatically re-hosted on https://lemmy.kya.moe/imgproxy?src=discuss.tchncs.de%2fpictrs/image/8a7cbe92-d521-4421-84ec-8ee6734d5c58.jpeg
Is this the default Lemmy’s behaviour?
