    You can insert as many inline images in a post as you want. You can even do so if the main “headline” content of your post is an image, or a link (unlike reddit).

    It doesn’t give you a left-to-right swiper, but readers can just scroll through whatever it is you’ve posted vertically, in the order you specify.

      • I suppose the types of images we habitually post are a bit different in both intent and shape.

        There seems to be a maximum vertical height automatically applied to inline images. So if you’ve got something tall that also includes text (like yours does) it may wind up illegible. I run into this with the Owl House strips frequently posted here. Since I’m a desktop nerd, I just right click and open the image in a new tab, then do with it what I will.

        The stupid but effective solution would be to split each horizontal row of panels into separate images and post them sequentially. That’s a lot of extra work, though.
