@Xazin commented on GitHub (Mar 21, 2023):

I think this should have some more thought placed on it, when implementation comes.

One thing is "storing" it in the applications directory, but we should probably already consider that there would be some Image Store, whether local or remote.

I suppose it would be good enough to have somewhere, a place where we can provide a custom ImageImportHandler, and then whether it stores it locally or not, shouldn't matter.

I agree, I'd like to have a local image option since AppFlowy runs locally, seems odd to force me to upload an image to a server just to add a url for it to load from.
