I know that's a feature, I just also heard that we should avoid uploading directly to the instance to avoid clogging it up. Is this actually an issue, or an overreaction?
Haven't seen any admin discussion about that so probably not a big deal
What link did you use to post the image? I think using the direct link (the one including the extension and no tags) will not add anything but the image.
You can get it by right clicking on the image on imgur and copying image address or opening the image in a new tab and copying from the address bar.
That's what I did actually! I thought that would bypass any weirdness, but looks like it still did that.
Seems like a bug that we have no recourse for the auto-generated text beneath, especially, directly linked images
