When the GUI editor is enabled there won’t be a ‘Insert image’ button below the post, you can use the image icon. This one:
Also, you can paste an image from your clipboard into the body field and it’ll be automatically uploaded and the markdown for the image inserted into the field.
You must log in or # to comment.

I think, clipboard is still only because the browser only copies the current still
I can copy/paste that gif out into my file browser and it stays animated just fine. The root cause is really the library that piefed is using to save all of its images when they are uploaded to the server (
PILis the name of the library for those that want to know). Basically, it doesn’t look past the first frame in an animated image when saving, so that is all that is saved to the server. The first gif you have there isn’t processed like that because it is being hosted elsewhere (tenor).I made some changes in the past that allow gifs to work in specific circumstances, but it is hacky and doesn’t address the root problem presented by PIL. It’s going to take some work to use a different image handling library for stuff like this, so gif support will be limited in the meantime.

Awesome! With posts that only feature a couple images or so, this will make it far more stable & convenient than posting them to Imgur (etc), first.
Btw, I’m assuming that uploaded images, if not actually used in posts and comments, will be auto-deleted at some point. For example, there’ve been a couple times when I attached the wrong pic to an ‘image post,’ and didn’t see a way to manually delete it.
But if it’s an auto-process then no worries, eh?
You can manage your files at https://piefed.social/user/files
It’s quite basic at the moment but I’d like there to be a search, some way to put keywords on files, a file resizer to save space. Eventually.
Excellent! And I take it that you just recently added a 50mb total cap per user content?
Yes. It’s a pretty low cap, once I have a bit of data on how much people use this I’ll be able to estimate the cost to provide it and probably increase it.
