I can open the post, but scrolling is not very smooth - it might be a memory issue given the size of the images?

Pretty sure it’s lemmy.world that’s having problems: https://lemmy-world.statuspage.io/

When checking your profile the images you posted in lemmy.world communities won’t load for me either, while other images load just fine.

I’m actually not that into actual self-hosting (it feels too close to my day job). But i love the idea of it, and actually do host my own RSS Reader: It’s selfoss (PHP + SQLite, so, very simple) and i have been using ever since google reader shut down. It runs on my uberspace.de instance.
