Currently, it is possible to crosspost links, but not images. I recently tried to share an image across two communities and had to create two separate posts. It would be a great if image crossposting could be supported in the future.

      That would be a great idea. :)

      Maybe the problem is that picture takes up memor on both server (original server + crossposted one) and the bandwidth to load the picture.

      You mean I should fist create an image post. And in the second community I create an Link post using the URL of the image post? Will the discussions then be displayed in both posts, as with crossposts?
