Comment on My friend got this when she tried to view a Reddit post about a dental issue that got marked as NSFW
jaybone@lemmy.zip 18 hours agoImages should load from your local Lemmy instance right?
But checking now I see you, OP and the com are all from the same instance. So I’m confused.

No, OP is lemmings.world, not lemmy. world.

Oh shit, my bad. Was reading too fast.
But still, the image should load from your local instance right? So in that commenters case, lemmy.world right?

Proxying was added after a bunch of csam attacks, where every instance admin would have to block it themselves. Now with proxying an admin can either block it themselves or the original posting instance can block it.

Some instances use the image proxy and others don’t. It seems that mine doesn’t.
