There is a correlation with file size. The picture I tried to upload was particularly big - about 20MB I think - so I probably should have downsized it anyway. There was no problem with uploading the few KB big screenshot.
Interesting, I did not know about pict-rs. Thank you, I will just try again, maybe with a downsized version of the picture.
Do you also have image upload issues sometimes? I have posted a screenshot of how it looks when it fails. It is a known bug -> https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1489
Do you maybe know how to get around it, and still be able to upload the image?
I just thought the same thing. This cannot be true. I refuse to believe it

Thank you very much for this post! It helped me a lot. I suggest caution with using browse.feddit.de though. They do not include all instances - like for example my home instance reddthat.com - you might miss a great community because of that.
EDIT: Now reddthat.com is back on the browser again - Instances could get dropped due to long response times or rate-limiting issues, so depending on the time you search you may get different results on the Community Browser.
Could it be that Reddthat was removed from the Community Browser (browse.feddit.de)? Can you still search for Communities on Reddthat in the Browser?
Since Twitter restricted people from looking at their website, lots of people migrate to mastodon instances. The more permissive of them with open registration (like pawoo for example) are being DDosed into the ground right now.
People are having a tough time using many Lemmy communities that are essentially just lists of links to outside content, like my c/dolls and c/schooluniforms, since much of the links are dead.
Since I am a data hoarder, I of course have much of the content I would like to post saved locally - but I do not want to repost some else's work without their permission and without linking to their online presence, like many imageboards unfortunately do.
Do you think it would be okay for me to post the pictures directly to reddthat (by uploading them here), but still providing the link where the post was originally made? (that may or may not work depending on the mood of whoever feels like they have to restrict their social network)
Yes unfortunately Twitter did that yesterday. Hopefully they will be able to scrape the content somehow anyway (apparently Twitter still allows googlebot to crawl their Tweets, so maybe Nitter will just disguise as a googlebot)
If I want to still be able to look at the works of my favorite artists, photographers and animators, I will unfortunately have to use it to some extent. Some of them also post on other platforms like pixiv, which allows you to look at content without an account. If there is any other way to look at their content, I do, but some are Twitter exclusive unfortunately.
People will naturally follow their favorite artists and will want to interact with them. If you could somehow convince the creators to post on a free and open alternative, I would not have any problem completely deleting my Twitter account.
In the case of Reddit, I would delete my Reddit account if I knew that all the rock hounders, bug identifiers, mineral photographers and crochet enthusiasts were here.
So, what now? If you are able to, create content that people are interested in and post in exclusively on free and open alternatives. If you have any useful skills or know-how, help people on free and open alternatives with their questions and problems. That is how I got into Twitter and Reddit at least. Maybe it will work for others too.
And most importantly: be nice. Don't downvote people's comments and posts for no reason. Don't leave toxic comments. Say Thank you, give people compliments, provide constructive criticism and try to be helpful.
