This isn’t directly possible. You can add an image to the body of the post using the ![alt text](https://example.com/image.png)
formatting. Lemmy automatically chooses an image to display on link posts. You can’t override this on Lemmy 0.18.4, which Beehaw uses (I believe it’s possible on later Lemmy versions, but the official UI doesn’t support it on those versions).
Mlem dev here - you can add a link to the post by tapping on the link button in the toolbar then tapping “Paste”. We’re aware that this isn’t ideal UI, and are improving it in the next update.
