Comment on lemm.ee plans for mitigating image upload abuse

So, Lemmy.World images seem to be ‘re-federating’ here. I couldn’t find any news items over there, but… did the CSAM issue finally get patched at the Lemmy software level?

Can you give an example of a federated image?
JohnnyEnzyme@lemm.ee 1 year ago
Sure. Here’s a couple posted in the community I run here-- [1], [2].
They went offline for about a week I think, sometime after both LW and you shut down image uploads. The images above began re-federating just today.

Ah, those images have not actually federated to us, they are hosted by lemmy.world.
To be clear: image posts by users of other instances will work fine, but I have modified Lemmy code to no longer make local copies of the images in such posts. Your browser is fetching the images directly from lemmy.world servers when you open those posts.

Okay, thanks for the correction! I’ll make sure to heed that meaning of “federated” in future.
Still, something obviously happened on the LW-side today with regard to the pics, hence my curiosity. Maybe the news will show up later, over there.

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !eurographicnovels@lemm.ee
