This, or blocking self hosting pictures
Honestly, this sounds like the best start until they develop better moderation tools.
This seems like the better approach. Let other sites who theoretically have image detection in place sort this out. We can just link to images hosted elsewhere
I generally use imgur anyway because I don't like loading my home instance with storage + bandwidth. Imgur is simply made for it.
Yes, and only whitelist trusted image hosting services (that is ones that have the resources to deal with any illegal material).
the problem is those sites can also misuse the same tools in a way that harms the privacy of it's users. We shouldn't resort to "hacks" to fix real problems, like using client scanning to break E2EE . One solution might be an open sourced and community maintained auto mod bot..
This seems like a really good solution for the time being.
