Embed images on the internet using their uri (image address)

Looking for a way to embed Images on the internet such that they could be loaded (and stored in cache) on the spot when connected to the internet and viewing the note rather than having to permanently download copies of images available on the internet. Similar to what is done in tiddlywiki.

Right now, a partial solution would be to manually input a <img> html element in an Obsidian markdown note.

<img src="https://path/to/your/image.png">

This wouldn’t cache the image, but at least you can view it in the note. It’s possible this is a plugin idea, not a core feature.

Thank you, this works, didn’t know such a syntax could be used😅

You can do Engelbart, or do you mean something else?
