Don't upload directly through Lemmy if you're looking to preserve the original quality. That is controlled by your instance admin if you wish to have them change it message them.
Most people including myself uses a service like https://catbox.moe/
Hmm, shall look into it.
So, when I open an image in a new tab I get
https://slrpnk.net/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.pinimg.com%2Foriginals%2F36%2F58%2F2e%2F36582e9915de4e1ece7ec4021b21b268.jpg
Type: WEBP (document.contentType=image/webp)
Dimensions: 557px × 900px
Seems like it was a jpg, but now it's webp (and yes I've tried to convince firefox to not like webp, seems to be ignored.
Is there a switch the admin can pull to stop this? They're pretty nice, but I'd like to make it easy on them.
Oh interesting, this is a bit different than what I thought you were experiencing.
So when I visit that post from my instance that doesn't happen. https://ani.social/post/4400463
It appears slrpnk.net is using a new feature called Image Proxying Its meant to protect you from data-mining and optimizes the data used.
I'm not aware of it theres a way to shut it off per user or not. I would recommend asking slrpnk.net's admin.
Mffh cool, and annoying in this case, but generally good. Might just stick with it and use another instance as needed. Thank you kindly for letting me know.
It’s generally done to save tons of disk space. We are running these with our own $.
