Jan 13, 2020 at 15:21 comment added PM 2Ring @DonaldDuck gist.github.com supports SVG. The mobile view on Github doesn't display a preview, but the desktop view does. Eg, see here.

http links no longer work - need https (as mentioned in the comments, thought it was worth fixing in the answer).

Mar 23, 2017 at 12:53 comment added Donald Duck Images only work with HTTPS on Stack Exchange, and I haven't found any HTTPS site to host images that supports SVG.

fixed link
Apr 28, 2016 at 2:22 comment added Craig McQueen I can't see the image at the moment—I just see a "broken image" icon. That's ironic, isn't it?
Jan 19, 2016 at 10:00 comment added user9869932 @WebChemist I accidentally edited this post when trying to correct a different one. Would you please roll-back my change? Thank-you

Link formatting and directly targetting that sandbox answer.
Dec 26, 2014 at 12:45 comment added Ilmari Karonen Here, have a bounty for actually demonstrating a working method of using SVG on SE (even if it does require using a third-party image host).

Migration of MSO links to MSE links
Dec 7, 2012 at 6:23 comment added WebChemist Modern browsers will let you view inline svg xml right in the html, so its not like it would really need its own SO svg hosting service, they would just need to tweak the way posted svg code is shown... but easier said then done when you have to prevent XSS and that sort of stuff. Example of inline svg code in html: jsfiddle.net/webchemist/c6E7w
Dec 7, 2012 at 5:59 comment added bgoodr Ideally, the StackExchange websites would provide the hosting services.
Dec 3, 2012 at 10:01 comment added WebChemist No I understand this, I just wanted to point out its still possible to show an svg. Would be nice if I could just paste the SVG code directly into a post (maybe you can but nothing I tried worked) but I could see the xml code taking up a lot of space on more complicated images
Dec 3, 2012 at 9:59 comment added Shadow Wizard True, however the whole point of dedicated image hosting is preventing rot i.e. cases where the original host is down, then the image is lost forever.
