minus-squareSatyrSack@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·2 months agoThat is what I have noticed. When I use Catbox, the exact Catbox URL appears on every instance. But when I upload directly to my instance, federated posts use their own cached image instead of the one from my instance.
minus-squareOpenStarslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 months agoInteresting… thank you for sharing! It seems caching doesn’t do much, even while also being a big pain for instance admins - so much so that it is explicitly made voluntary. Perhaps that is why PieFed is going so hard on integration with PixelFed and now Loops.
