Hey, as pointed out by other people, you can directly got to the artist’s website Here to show them that people read their comics or to read more of them.
Op is an uncultured person who repeatedly crops the artist’s name out of their comics (using ai, which doesn’t help his reputation here). I’l leave you to decide wether you find that respectable or not.
It looks like it’s a free image hosting service, and given that and that @AntiBullyRanger@ani.social also said that they couldn’t reach it directly, my guess is that there’s probably a number of people who upload content that violates someone’s requirements and get the host blacklisted by folks of a censorious nature.
EDIT: @over_clox@lemmy.world and @AntiBullyRanger@ani.social: A Lemmy instance can be set up to proxy images for remote sites. This has some privacy benefits (someone can’t harvest IP addresses of Lemmy users by just submitting images and waiting to see which IP addresses load them) and also the incidental benefit of bypassing restrictions like this, as long as your Lemmy home instance is accessible on the network that is blocking the image host. The home instance I use, lemmy.today, does this, and I’m sure that there are others. You might consider setting up another account on a second home instance that does that to work around this, if it’s common for you where you are.
The downside is that your lemmy home instance has to spend the extra bandwidth and storage space to serve the images, so it requires the admin to be able and willing to expend the server resources on it.
sometimes I have to go to the source link to see the image, the rainbow icon next to the upvote
I think it’s a federation issue with your instance and the host of the community with some mixing of where the op is federating from. only happens to me once in awhile and usually newer posts
Uh, okay, whatever this is…
Image doesn’t load for me, but strangely the thumbnail loads.

Ah, interesting. You get upvote, OP gets downvote.
Boo OP, you’re stealing the works of others without giving credit 👎

Oof, okay, thanks for sharing a direct link OP.
But even that didn’t wanna load, I had to bust out Tor Browser, and reset even that twice, before I could view the whole image.
It must be a Mississippi thing, they’re being fucking stupid about what we can and can’t access online anymore 🤷

https://lemmy.today/post/50406412 is this post on lemmy.today, for example.
The link that my browser actually loads is https://lemmy.today/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ibb.co%2FG3CVVyq2%2Fgghhhh.jpg

No need to @ me. Just use
code tagsStrangely I had to use a proxy to read this.
All the characters in Watchmen are bad guys. It’s inherently a bad society, with an even worse decision being made.
