People have been having issues with uploading images/videos to Burggit sometimes, usually a lemmy issue that we have no control over. Well now we have https://shota.nu feel free to upload your embeddable files there and embed them directly into Burggit! think of it as Imgur, but less retarded!

Check it out: https://shota.nu Keep uploaded content within Burggit Rules

important note: uploaded data is NOT encrypted. For encrypted temporary file sharing, try Shota Send instead.

Important note #2: Make sure to use the direct link when embedding files! It will look something like https://shota.nu/ss/yourfileid.extension. If it does not have the /ss/ it’s not a direct link and will not embed properly on lemmy.

    Just making sure: You can also upload lighter images normally on the Lemmy instance as an attachment when posting right? For bigger media that’s indeed very useful to have; Thanks for thinking of everything!

      Yeah, if you can get your image to upload through the regular interface, it’s fine. This is mainly for files that simply will not upload through the regular interface because Lemmy’s built in uploader is terrible.
