this isn't working anymore for me
I've loved this feature, but it seems as of April 2023, Git changed things and now the images are wrapped so only members of that repository are allowed access. Something with assets in the path.
eg: Now:
https://github.com/konacurrents/konacurrents/assets/5555/5b9fa87a-7d62-4c9d-9108-fde9abd433c9)
vs: what all described here shows:
https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/5555/long-uuid.JPEG
Anyone have more info on what seems a major change (but of course for security..)
Strange, when I do this in 2023 to my private repositories, there is no jpg link - but rather an indirect link that only lets those with permission to see the image. That changed this year as far as I can tell (and it's kinda unfortunate.) I guess I can make things public to get the link and private for the writeups.
