Was this removed deliberately, or was it an inadvertent change?

I don't understand what you're asking. If you link to an image, it's a link. If you use an image tag, it's going to show an image. That hasn't changed.

[url=https://postimg.cc/5HF9qwtP][/url]But all the old screenshots I have posted are now formatted like this:
[https://i.postimg.cc/5HF9qwtP/Quake-4-Dead-Strogg.png](http://postimg.cc/5HF9qwtP)Not sure how that changed, but I can go back and edit them for the desired behaviour.
For reference, here is how it is supposed to work, with clicking on the image taking me to an external link to the original image host:

We're moving over to Markdown because BBCode is just terrible, part of this is that all original links were moved over to Markdown but it didn't take into account images as links, it now does and it should work as normal.
For example, here is an image with a markdown url wrapped around it:

As you can see it now works as expected.

Yep, still fine.
Bigger image direct in img tags:

Please steer clear of [url] tags.
