Probably more stupid than most questions here, but Lemmy seems to have a learning curve. I’m using Connect to access the fediverse.
I’ve tried using the upload icon (next to the URL field) to upload a photo from my phone, but it remains blank after I try to select a photo.
Do I need to use an external hosting service like imgur? That method has always been clunky to the point that I just never used it in the earlier days of reddit.
Since you said you were using Connect, I am commenting from the Connect App, testing just to see if I could upload a photo from the app. I just clicked on the image icon when replying, then clicked upload, and selected image.
Edit: It seems to work when replying in a comment, you would think that it would work when submitting a post as well. I mostly use the Jerboa app, and I have been able to upload photos in posts and comments without any problems.
I submitted a couple posts with pictures using the Jerboa app, which is pretty easy because there is a picture icon to upload and attach to a post, but my last few pictures come up sideways and I’m not sure how to fix that.
