Wait, really? I've had it disabled for a while for other reasons. I'm safe from a Win11 forced upgrade?

PSA: The Lemmy federation convention of hotlinking images to other peer federation servers makes it easy for a rogue instance to collect end-user IP addresses & browser strings, don't assume otherwise in c/[email protected]

A "solution" to this might be for lemmy instances/apps to have the option to "load remote images" the way e-mail providers do. So I have to actively click to load the images. Could even be done per subscription, so I could declare that I just want everything loaded when I see lemmy.ml/c/pics but not in general, where I usually want text.
