I’ve read that uploading all your images/gifs/videos to lemmy will cause big server costs down the line.

I wanted to do my part in keeping the costs low so which site or app or whatever do people recommend to upload your media to for linking in posts? I’ve tried imgur and I’m not really a fan

    I’ve noticed that when you make an image post with an external image, the instance will just save the image and won’t load the external image directly. This is a good thing for privacy and security but it also means that it doesn’t matter where you upload your images. Images uploaded directly to Lemmy are loaded directly from the other instance though.
