Do you know why this is happening?

It's just a choice Steemit is making as far as how and what links display on their platform. It's up to the platform to decide what will display from a link. For example, when I post Steemit links on the Minds.com platform, the source image shows up on Minds.com automatically, so basically Steemit is trying to make sure that it's better for me if I post on Steemit and share on Minds.com rather than the other way around which will leave me with a text-only share unless I put up my own image on Steemit, which might seem like no big deal, but if it's not my post then I might not have the right to post the image myself and probably won't know for sure whether I do or not.

You have to do it like this:

``

Or like this:

The syntaxes are the following:

  • Insert image:
    ![](link to image)
    or
    ``
  • Link:
    [text to link](the link itself)
    or
    text to link
  • Image that is a link:
    [![](link to image)](link)
    or
    ``

It looks complicated but it's pretty straight-forward once you understand it. You can also add another link below the image like

View in Minds.com

Result:

View more on Minds.com

It's bigger because I also added text, which is the code for a size-3 title.

Thanks CS. Working on absorbing this massively complicated scripting language. Sorry.

You seem to have added a `` tag. You should remove that in order for it to work properly. :) Just copy this and paste it.

`View more on Minds.com`

I was pasting it in w/o going into raw HTML mode so it was inserting spaces I think.

This by itself works:

h ttps://gateway.ipfs.io/ipfs/QmTw5stGexp26hXGFCwqUhFP9QL5s4FDh3MFcA7Joje8rx

Now how a normal person whose name doesn't begin with "Crypto" is supposed to know that...

I don't see where you find that address. The one I see in my bar for that blog post reads - https://www.minds.com/media/839618750158573568.

I get this for the poet voice post:

h ttps://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/cultural-analysis-poet-voice

but where do I go to find the ipfs one?
