Welcome to a little slice of culinary heaven where we share photos of our favorite dishes, from savory succulent sausages to delicious and delectable desserts. Made it yourself? We'd love to hear your recipe!

Rules:

1. BE KIND

Food should bring people together, not tear them apart. Think of the human on the other side of the screen, and don't troll, harass, engage in bigotry, or otherwise make others uncomfortable with your words.

2. NO ADVERTISING

This community is for sharing pictures of awesome food, not a platform to advertise.

3. NO MEMES

4. PICTURES SHOULD BE OF FOOD

Preferably good, high quality pictures of good looking grub; for pictures of terrible food, see !shittyfoodporn@lemmy.ca

Is it because I'm on lemm.ee and this community is lemmy.world? I'm very sad because I really want to share my wife amazing cooking.

So, uh, how does everyone in here get a nice big image to see, but mine is just a link?

[–] yote_zip@pawb.social 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Click 'edit' on your original post, then put your image's URL into the "URL" space and save.

There's actually no difference between using an external image host and uploading to lemm.ee in terms of end result - all image posts on Lemmy are technically just URLs that are filled out.

For whatever reason that only seems to work properly for me when I post using the connect app. Just saying!

Sorry I just saw how you posted it - you posted the link to the image's webpage but not the direct link to the image itself. You'll need to right click the image and e.g. "Open image in new tab" or "Copy image location" or something so that you end up with a link that actually ends with your image file, like this:

https://images2.imgbox.com/4f/6c/yf5t7SiE_o.jpeg

catbox.moe doesn't do the image page thing and will just give you a direct URL, if you find that easier.

Oh snap! Thanks again! I'm still trying to figure out this Federation-ness-izm stuff lol. I really want lemmy to take off (to a point, because fuck the mainstream runs everything), but it needs to get just a teensy bit more user friendly...

We are all aware, thanks for bearing with the ongoing development of the platform!

[–] turtlepower@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

No worries. There's always some small-dick-energy bitches wherever you go. I just try to remain positive, throw some shade, and block. Let them drown in their misery- my life is pretty good regardless of their shitty attitude!

Thanks for including the link because for some reason I couldn't get to the direct image, it just kept loading the page again. Next time I'll try catbox!
