Can't upload photos (lemmy.world)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

Noticed this issue in the past two days. Whenever I try to upload a photo, there is an error. It is still happening as of right now.

The error reads: “Problem uploading image. Please try again.”

Many instances have disabled uploading images due to an recent attack on Lemmy servers. You may want to check your instance's "meta" community for any announcements about that.

Image uploads on lemmy.world and many other instances are disabled rn while the admins deal with CSAM posters and come up with a solution for the future.

Use imgur for now.

Ah ok. Thanks! Hope the brigading issue gets solved soon.

If you’re on iOS, here‘s a shortcut that makes it more convenient to upload images to Imgur.
