This explanation has pictures, and I learned me a thing or two from it!
Here's a (grainy, blurry) screenshot, if you don't feel like clicking away to read the comment in its original glory:
too bad the resolution is so low, it makes it a chore to read :(
Apologies; it's my first time posting here. I had just a link at first, but I thought it might be helpful to add a screenshot, like an overall preview of the post. Is it confusing to have something other than the link? I can take it out.
I think the image is grainy because of lemm.ee's image uploading rules, but don't quote me on that... I really just wanted to have the image as a fallback of sorts, completely secondary to the link.
Edit: I've updated the post to reflect that the image isn't meant to be the main thing. Is that the best thing to do?
Well, welcome! I was not aware that the link was the main part, and I think if you upload to Lemmy it will compress images on its own. Those transfats though!!
