Huge butt. 😋

That’s not how it works. Instances don’t cache images from other instances. If you hover your mouse over an image you can clearly see the site it’s hosted on is in fact not originating from the instance you’re browsing on. It works like Pleroma, Akkoma, Rebased, and other Pleroma forks.

IANAL, but I believe you can’t be held liable for hosting links to other images on a site, regardless if they’re embedded through the website’s UI. They’re not stored there, afterall. The client is rendering them.

All that gets cached, I believe, is the text and users from remote instances. And by cached, I mean stored in the postgres DB.

Okay, that Archer quote in this context made my day. LOL.

Do you guys think the higher ups will be able to retire to Reddit Island after they sell their shares? 🤣
