Description: Sometimes, mostly when I try to preview a post, it takes extremely long to load. As in up to five minutes and now it sometimes doesn't load at all. This happens no matter if I am on wifi or mobile data and I also tried clearing my cache.

No image, as there is no error message, it simply won't load.

Device/Browser: Android Phone/Mobile Browser

Yes, me too! It also takes longer when I add a picture to it.

I cleared the site cache, let me know if this persists.

... its faster... but now when I'm trying to put an image, it becomes a link automatically upon preview or submission.

Can you try changing browsers

Not on a google chromebook whereas your only browser is google chrome... on my phone, I tried duckduckgo, internet explorer, safari, and firefox

All I struggled with

it depends on the image size, I think. If it is a large file, it might take longer to load. But if it's not, it takes less time. At least, that's what I have noticed.

This can happen in case the site fails to import the image that is contained in the post (either because the link is not good or corresponds to a page and not an image; or because the site blocks it). When an image is present, the site imports it (so that it is hosted on the server) and then compresses it. It is this first step that can be long.
