Look, if UX and data usage are not important to you, by all means use other Nostr clients that download high res images as you scroll the feed.
You can disagree with our approach, but ascribing malice to it is going a bit too far, don't you think?

Just trying to have a conversation. I would hope there is no malicious intent, but How do other clients manage to do it? There has to be other ways to reduce load on the client side for the download other than changing images and URLs? Legitimate questions.
You are dodging the issue.
You are taking user’s media files and uploading to *your* cdn.
You are now in control of the media displayed on primal not the user.
If the user changes the media associated with their media url (not the url just the media) primal would be displaying incorrect / out of date content.
Primal at any point could change the content associated with its media links.
The charade of ignorance on this subject is alarming.
+1 on good UX. There are some very nice clients out there. One of the popular ones I no longer use because it is a *battery blow torch*! No one is forced to use any particular Nostr client - YOU choose. Don’t like any of them, go vibe your own. Assuming mal intentions is juvenile.
