People have been having issues with uploading images/videos to Burggit sometimes, usually a lemmy issue that we have no control over. Well now we have https://shota.nu feel free to upload your embeddable files there and embed them directly into Burggit! think of it as Imgur, but less retarded!

Check it out: https://shota.nu Keep uploaded content within Burggit Rules

important note: uploaded data is NOT encrypted. For encrypted temporary file sharing, try Shota Send instead.

Important note #2: Make sure to use the direct link when embedding files! It will look something like https://shota.nu/ss/yourfileid.extension. If it does not have the /ss/ it’s not a direct link and will not embed properly on lemmy.

      I don’t use ShareX it’s probably possible, I enabled API usage of the service, however since I don’t have a Windows machine I don’t really have any means of testing this.

            I just realized I made a “mistake” and used url instead of direct_url for the response which will cause issues in lemmy specifically as it has to be the direct url being posted. I’ve fixed my post and download link. If you could update it in the OP as well that would be much appreciated!
