On most forum posts I read people just post image hosting links
like they do on Usenet. Sometimes you see that spammers have
figured out how to post visible images but the regulars haven't.

One did change their platform to Discourse and start supporting
image hosting, but that upgrade came with lots of Javascript
(including for lazy-loading those images) that annoys me even
more.

Forums are bad, that's why I'm here.
