Aha gotcha!
It actually WAS MLPF being MLPF!
I should have known it right from the beginning...
My problems started when the MLPF had troubles / outages back then. Forums broke and when they came back, images were acting weird for me since then.
I still don't know what's the deal exactly, but I found WHY MLPF wasn't the only place, where images were broken.
.... because I copied my 'about me' from MLPF onto the other forums!

I think I've mentioned it multiple times in the past, but the thing I hate about MLPF is that it "steals" the images and caches them on its own local server. The result is, that instead of serving images from Imgur, it replaces paths to images with its own.

Now when I copied the about me to the other forums back then, my profile there was flooded with mlpforums references and if images here on MLPF broke, they of course had to break in other places as well.
Another issue with it is, that it makes it extremely obnoxious to re-add images.
While most of the images keep their original link references (display image from mlpf server, but at least link to imgur on click), sometimes mlpf replaces the links as well, so that I absolutely cannot locate the original path to file on Imgur, forcing me to either browse my imgur gallery to find the original link or reupload the image entirely, if mlpforums are kind enough to let me see the image at least that one time. I'm not sure why exactly this happens when it does, but either way, no matter what, image paths refer to mlpforums, which itself is insanely obnoxious, because linking to my own images yeets mlpforums references all over the place, so it's still better to relocate the image from my gallery to ensure, that the images are loaded from a more reliable source - my own source, so to speak.
Well, I still don't know why only up to about 15 different offsite images load here on mlpf on each page, but I managed to fix it in other sites, by readding all images directly from imgur, so that they aren't corrupted with mlpf paths. It took some time and MLPF multiple times tricked me like this...
So now I know what I should avoid - When posting something on multiple forums, do it somewhere else and then copy it here to mlpf, not the other way around.
..But the issue still persists here on MLPF and I have no idea what I can do about that.

Aaaaaanyway,
...Because it was happening on multiple sites I suspected the original source of images - Imgur, but I forgot, that mlpf have that obnoxious caching and Imgur had nothing to with it the whole time.
Had to readd all images in other sites, so that they have the original path to imgur and it all works now.I still have troubles viewing the images cached here on mlpf, but I care less about that now that I know imgur is not to blame and I can normally continue using it. I was so scared, that after all these years Imgur is dying or something.
Summarizing - I found the source of problems, found ways to avoid those problems on other sites, but still can't "fix" the issue in the source.

Would anybody be interested in it?

Goodmorning.I'm about to start my appointment soon, hope y'all are having a nice one today.

You know, it makes me wonder what it'd be like to be a pony / be your OC O.O to be a fluffy pony with hooves. Would be...interesting, to say the least (I always wondered how hooves work
...in my little pony)
Surely, I cant be the only person who wants to live in Equestria and be their OC, right? 

If I was my OC, I'd love to see what kind of spells I can use, what is the pony equivalent of our food in the real world and explore the world of equestria with my friends
(maybe have a party with pinkie, hang out with discord, or have some magic lessons with twilight. all of those things sound pretty good :3)
What would you do if you were your OC?
