Yeah, you're right... but I think the problem is, the login info... but, than again, how could it store copies of my post, but not images.
In any case, I do agree that this is something that should be looked into and discussed in length.
I don't see why the login info is an issue, and storing a copy of a post wirh just a link to an image makes sense.
I really have no idea how other instances actually confirm that you're posting from another instance, not just emulating that you're a user on another instance. That might be a part of ActivityPub, but I haven't looked at code, wouldn't know.
This is part of the ActivityPub protocol, but I haven't looked into it enough to know how it's defined.
