So all I need to to is add an exclamation mark to turn a link into a hotlink? It's really that simple?

Thank you.

Oh, the exclamation mark and empty brackets ![] is to turn it into an embedded image. hotlinking is just using an imgur link inside the parenthesis (https://www.imgur.com/image.jpg) instead of the built-in lemmy photo service (https://pictrs.lemmy.world/pictrs/image/somethingsomething.webp?format=webp)

Either way you're welcome, always happy to be helpful!

Yeah that's what I meant. Same difference as far as I'm concerned.

Thanks again.
