Anyone else notice the strange anomaly of preview images of shared Steemit post links NOT showing up in Discord??
Well, I believe I've figured out why this is. Others may already know about it, but I thought this was worth a post to spread the word and get these images showing up for everyone again.
For those of us who LOVE how images on Steemit works now, by simply drag/dropping or copy/pasting it to the browser, this one is going to be a slight inconvenience.
It turns out that those specific images are the culprit.
BUMMER.
But, the only image that matters is the first one. For all the others, drag/drop, copy/paste to your heart's delight.
Just make sure the link for the first one is external, such as imgur.
Thanks @winstonwolfe for figuring that out, that's really helpful. This is a good notation that should get added to the wiki since so many of us use Discord these days :)

Exactly. Don't know why that is, but hosting it elsewhere fixes it.

That's good to know. I hope the Steemit programmers can make it so the Steemit images show up on Discord. It would be a lot easier for us all that way, rather than putting our first image somewhere else, just for Discord! I wonder what other applications might be affected by the same thing behind this Discord-Steemit mismatch. Thanks!
