I'm curious if I can post reddit-hosted content here without a redirect to the site.

As far as I can tell this causes the Lemmy backend to download a copy and serve it from the slrpnk.net server.

Edit: hmm... odd. So it does cache the images for local users and visitors, but not for remote federated viewers. See: https://lemmy.world/post/963188 vs. https://slrpnk.net/post/617339

Ok I think I understand what happens. Not ideal as this will cause problems with federation if the remote image link is not working well.

That sounds like an issue. Any recommendations how to address it?
