for the longest time a lot of images posted to reddit were really posted on imgur (until they started hosting it on their own, too). is there a fediverse'd imgur we should be using to complement lemmy? its docs say it shouldn't be used for large images and videos.

pixelfed seems more like a federated flickr or instagram, not just simple image/album hosting like imgur. thoughts? ty ๐Ÿ’™

Yes, by default files are stored directly on a volume on the disk but it's possible to configure pict-rs to use object storage, although there isn't much documentation for configuring and using it with Lemmy yet. Kbin has support for S3 storage in its environment variables. I'll do some research and see if I can add it to Lemmy.
