I can't see images from lemmy.world instance because my country has banned lemmy.world, is there any effort going on to solve this issue?

You're viewing a single thread.
your country banned it? that's f-in wild. i had no idea governments anywhere gave enough of a shit about lemmy to censor it. you could try petitioning your state, or using a vpn, but i doubt there's anything lemm.ee can do about it.
lemmy has an image proxy feature, but it doesn't seem to be enabled on lemm.ee currently. it also still has various issues where media may break, it should get better in future lemmy versions (probably only in 1.0, not in 0.19 versions).
some alt uis also have the option to proxy images if enabled by the person hosting it, e.g. tesseract.
there is an open instance available at https://tesseract.dubvee.org/, you can enable media proxying in the settings on the left.
as always with uis hosted by third parties, keep in mind that you need to trust the operator, as they could deliver code that steals your credentials. when possible, use uis hosted by your own instance operator, as they would have access to them anyway if they wanted.lemmy has an image proxy feature, but it doesn’t seem to be enabled on lemm.ee currently.
Tangent, leaving a breadcrumb for anyone reading this thread - Sunaurus (lemm.ee owner/tech/head janitor) covered the image issues and our options over in this thread about 6 months ago, it's starting to get buried by newer Meta posts. https://lemm.ee/post/45276090
