~~I was trying to add my first post but after I attached an image file I noticed it got automatically uploaded to ghostarchive.org, archive.org and archive.today even before making the actual post. There is also no warning about that anywhere to be seen. I think this is major privacy concern especially that user has no control to delete that image from abovementioned services. What if you mistakenly pick private image to upload when creating post? You can remove it from Lemmy to correct it but itβs already outside of your control.
Long story short: you completely lose control over any image you attach when trying to create Lemmy post.~~
edit: uploaded a screenshot (sorry it's in Polish) + that's the link you get when you click on 'archive.org' - https://web.archive.org/web/20230614181328/https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/a307f984-4d30-4f45-813f-cbedfe1b596d.png

Ahh I see, in that case, you are triggering the "upload" to archive.org yourself by putting the URL into archive.org.
If you put any URL into archive.org that it doesn't know about, it will first always try to download whatever is on that URL, and that's how it ended up getting the screenshot. It wasn't "pushed" by Lemmy, it was "pulled" by archive.org, and it was only possible because you notified archive.org that something is there at that URL.
Ok I get this now, however this is still not cool as it's pretty easy to click it on accident as it needs no confirmation on warning and has no clear description what it does. Post will be deleted.
