RESOLVED not working anymore? (lemm.ee)

I used to regularly put images in comments by using ![](). Suddenly that does not work anymore, help!

It stopped working for me (and also another user) a few days ago. Until I post the comment it is fine but when I post it, the url of the image is getting automatically changed into a format that does not work.

Before posting it looks like this:

![](https://i.imgur.com/yFXLOOY.jpg)

However, posting it changes the url into this (non working) url

![](https://lemm.ee/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FyFXLOOY.jpg)

I will post the same image as a comment in this thread from two different accounts to illustrate.

How did this suddenly change, I never had problems posting images in comments before?

What can I do to fix this? I like posting images in comments and would be very happy if I could go back to it?

It's occasionally breaking for us due to imgur rate limiting the lemm.ee server. I am planning to disable proxying for a few well known image hosting sites (including imgur) soon - it requires some additional development, but I think I'll be able to do it in the next few days. Sorry for the inconvenience!
