Imgur wiping uploads starting 15th May

[Biggles]

Starting 15th May 2023, Imgur is purging anonymous uploads.

Our new Terms of Service will go into effect on May 15, 2023. We will be focused on removing old, unused, and inactive content that is not tied to a user account from our platform as well as nudity, pornography, and sexually explicit content. You will need to download/save any images that you wish to save if they no longer adhere to these Terms.

I came from another forum which is busily archiving old images in response to this vandalism. Surprisingly I can't see anything here, at least according to search. Has this news really passed the community by? I hope not. Obviously many old threads will be unavoidably broken, but there is still time (just about) to archive important material.

As for the best platform to host images in future, Discord maybe?

Jeesh. Thanks for that, I didn't hear about it at all, even in other community circles.

Nothing of value was lost.
