Probably more stupid than most questions here, but Lemmy seems to have a learning curve. I’m using Connect to access the fediverse.
I’ve tried using the upload icon (next to the URL field) to upload a photo from my phone, but it remains blank after I try to select a photo.
Do I need to use an external hosting service like imgur? That method has always been clunky to the point that I just never used it in the earlier days of reddit.
2nding the question, been trying to upload from within the liftoff app, but when clicking the image icon and selecting the icon, it “loads” for a second but then nothing happens.
Make sure the image weights less than the maximum allowed by your instance which is 1MB but default.
