They mean posting the link instead of uploading a copy of the image.
It's not about the comment.

It embeds in posts, not in my comment.

Clearly we are in orbit of a Kerr black hole, whose axial rotation is causing the light to shift according to frame dragging!

Leave it to the blues to assume everyone is moving towards them!!!
