When you upload an image in the URL bar when creating a post, where does it go? Are they hosted on the respective Instance of the community?

    OK, I’ve just realised something new - images pulled from websites as thumbnails are uploaded to the server and appear to be basically full sized, i.e.:

    https://agora.nop.chat/pictrs/image/59cfdd9c-2f69-4e8d-8afc-6fbc0c1cca87.jpeg

    This image is on my server, but it’s just pulled from the website as a thumbnail. This doesn’t seem to be super consistent in how it’s handled - I’m continuing to look at what’s causing it and why it doesn’t seem to happen all the time.

    EDIT: Seems like there’s more on there than I expected. Gonna continue digging.
