External images could be linked and displayed using:

  • ![](external url)

Then Lemmy images could be resized which I think also shrinks the file size; hence faster display time, save internet data, and save screen space; by adding &thumbnail=:

  • ![](https://lemmy/. .../pictrs/image/... .webp?format=webp&thumbnail=320)

So, is it possible to do similar but for any external image? Or at least generate thumbnails of many external images? Thanks in advance.
