The [email protected] mod removed this post for the reason you cited.
But because Hexbear banned _cryptagion, [email protected]'s only mod, 3 months ago, his mod actions don't federate back to Hexbear, and this post stays up on our side
Apparently he's been posting to [email protected] about Hexbear ever since his ban, we just can't see it from here
You were banned from [email protected] for this comment:
but I'm not sure that the ban federated to Hexbear because Hexbear banned _cryptagion, the only mod

What I did:
Tried embedding the image from this post on Hexbear: 
Expected result:
Image is embedded
Actual result:
More info: These hosts are whitelisted for embedding images on Hexbear:
- chapo.chat
- discuss.tchncs.de
- hexbear.net
- i.imgur.com
- jlai.lu
- lemm.ee
- lemmy.ml
- lemmy.world
- lemmygrad.ml
- mander.xyz
- pathfinder.social
- possumpat.io
- test.hexbear.net
- toots.matapacos.dog
- ttrpg.network
- www.hexbear.net
But in the case of toots.matapacos.dog, assets.toots.matapacos.dog should be whitelisted instead.
If you haven't ordered any at all from them since September, you're allowed to place 2 orders instead of 1.
Each order gives you two packs of 2.
Be sure to swab your throat after swabbing nose to avoid a false negative.
Like this:
The UK DHSC's official instructions:
Hold the handle of the swab with your fingers. Open your mouth wide. Rub the soft tip of the swab over both tonsils 4 times. Tonsils are soft pads at the back of your throat, 1 on each side. If you have no tonsils rub the swab on the sides of your throat.
spoiler Throat rapid tests are preferred because COVID variants from Omicron onward gather in your throat, not your nose.
Update: From JN.1 onwards, it's back to your nose again.
Article about the difference: https://www.businessinsider.com/how-to-throat-swab-for-omicron-at-home-experts-2022-1
The FDA has authorized just one method of taking a COVID-19 rapid test: swabbing the inside of your nose.
But ever since Omicron came into force in the US in mid-December, some people have noted on social media that their rapid tests only come back positive after adding saliva to the mix.
Medical journal article: Saliva swabs are the preferred sample for Omicron detection
Rapid tests in other countries call them nose and throat kits now, because they're not behind like the FDA is.

Embedding Imgur videos in comments works, but embedding Rimgo (imgur proxy) videos does not
(hexbear.net)
Request: Can we please whitelist one or more Rimgo instances for embedding images/videos in comments?
List of Rimgo instances, along with their data collection policies: https://codeberg.org/rimgo/instances#clearnet
I understand that we want to limit which sites are whitelisted for embedding, given embedding's history of abuse after Hexbear started federating, but since Imgur is already whitelisted, maybe Rimgo is okay to whitelist, too?
More info: I use Imgur to share videos with sound in Hexbear comments, because we cannot upload videos directly to Hexbear. Example:
However, Imgur often does not work for me (and likely many other Hexbear users) due to it often blocking VPNs. For that reason, I personally have the LibRedirect extension installed, which redirects any Imgur link I visit to a Rimgo equivalent (example: https://rimgo.kling.gg/aDD5Cf9.mp4). However, because Rimgo is not whitelisted for embedding, using it directly on Hexbear does not work:
.
On a side note, if https://catbox.moe/ becomes whitelisted for embedding, we would not need to use Imgur or Rimgo anymore for video hosting. Catbox is generally better than Imgur for video hosting, since Imgur limits videos to 1 minute.
