      I did it from the web. I just kept clicking the photo button and it worked ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

      If you post in the body rather than the URL this happens. However, on Jerboa at least, it means you can’t zoom in on any image or easily download, which is kind of annoying. That’s more of an app problem, though.

      The syntax for an externally hosted image is ![my-alt-text](https://example.com/my.webp). You can put multiple of those in either a post or comment.

      I haven’t done it with uploading multiple images to the instance, but I believe you can just keep clicking the add image button. It doesn’t do any fancy previews like the single field in the post for an image, and if you want a preview you have to put one there and more in the body. It’s not a great system, but it works sort of ok.

    Maybe it’s me but I was hoping we wouldn’t import this kind of Instagram spam to Lemmy. I guess most people like posts like this? I’ll just be happy for more content then.

      I was honestly hoping it definitely would make it here. I like some light content that showcases a driver’s personality without diving into their private life.

      It’s not just you. Some people want this, some people don’t. For many it doesn’t feel like the GP weekend has started yet unless they see Lewis’ outfits

        My wife specifically uses lewis outfits each day of the race week to inspire the outfits for her Animal Crossing character. When the Lewis Instagram fashion watch account on Instagram shut down she genuinely was saddened. It’s all part of the spectacle.

      Same, I’m here for race updates, big news, and occasional high-quality shitposts. I’m hoping the clickbait headlines, fanboy flame-wars, and driver-liked-other-driver’s-corporate-mandated-IG-post screenshots would die with Reddit!

      But Fashion Lewis arriving, officially starting the Race Week, is a tradition.

      So, I get what you mean, but for me, it’s this kind of fluff that helps make it feel like a community, rather than a curated RSS feed.

      The weekend can’t start without a “Lewis Hamilton arriving at…” post!

      He gets his fashion advice from Zaphod Beeblebrox…

      Great driver. Questionable dresser.
