** Updated with screenshot since link is being dumb. 👎🏼 https://x.com/blazersvip/status/1715085889167307095?s=46&t=CZiUWVUNoreZAmGS0FWJ9Q
Hey, just a heads up but the links comes through as a removed tweet for me!
Additionally, I will never click a Twitter link so there’s that.
Do you know how I can share video or gifs here? That’s why I shared the link instead.

Lemmy also allows sharing of images and videos. To upload an image, go to the Create post page and click the little image icon under the URL field. This allows you to select a local image. If you made a mistake, a popup message allows you to delete the image. The same image button also allows uploading of videos in .gif format. Instead of uploading a local file, you can also simply paste the URL of an image or video from another website.
Note that this functionality is not meant to share large images or videos, because that would require too many server resources. Instead, upload them on another platform like PeerTube or Pixelfed, and share the link on Lemmy.
Tldr: use the website not an app, there is direct upload, else, see peertube/pixelfed/catbox.moe/redgifs
Thank you!
That’s dumb! It’s there. I can’t get videos or gifs to upload here. Any thoughts?
It’s probably twitter being dumb about age-restricted content. I don’t have a Twitter account and even if I go to your profile externally I can only see your bio and nothing else. It never used to be like that so maybe they’ve changed how they handle NSFW content recently.
Most users use an external hosting site for things of that nature. Redgifs or catbox.moe appear to be the most popular here Lemmy.
Thank you! I got flagged today so that’s probably why!
You’re welcome! Personally I would say it’s better to avoid linking to twitter in general because as another user mentioned people will probably avoid it around here.
Appreciated!! Thank you! 🩷
I want you all in my face, how’s that for a start?
Deal! Come get me!

Do you listen to weezer?
Yes!
RIP
?? Creepy…
Sorry. the user PP_Boy is known to ask people if they like Weezer, because they are turned off by Weezer fans. True story. Totally understand why you wouldn’t know that, and why a random RIP would be off putting. It was “RIP to your chances of getting the response you wanted from hoping to have found a fellow fan”.
Look here if you aren’t convinced lol
