That link is a link to a website that displays the image. You need the URL that directly points to the image resource.

how do you do that?
I'm not sure how to do it with Google hosted images tbh. My profile pic should probably render inline:
Yep, it did. I pasted the url "oxtr[.]dev/assets/profilepic1.jpeg
i used ipfs and a gateway. Ipfs on its own didnt work, but that would be pretty sweet if it did!
It did, and so I’m clear, did global feed see this too or is it just people following you who could see it on Damus iOS?
does it work with gifs?

Ooh, this looks good actually! I've set it up on bija so that you can connect a cloudinary account and then you can add images directly whey you compose a post. May add this as an option too, looks simpler and easier. Cloudinary is prob overkill for most people.
Yeah, go to giphy and find a GIF. Copy image address (remove evertything from after the ".gif" extension, and just paste it here.
