It just came to my knowledge that lemmy crawler display the content of the mastodon post when you post it as a link in lemmy posts.

Which make me think about the cost savings for every server that can apply this and save the costs of serving photos.

What does the Mod here think?

Edit 1: after testing the lemmy crawler crawl Bluesky, Mastodon and Nostr, so all what I said can also be applied to other microblog services.

Edit 2: Just wanted to add that it will also enhance accessibility for users.

    I’m not on your instance but I agree with this 100% and if people start posting more raw fediverse links hopefully app support will improve too.
