Imgur has been a pain in the back of my neck for years because they don't allow access through VPNs, and I do not touch clearnet without VPNs, it's akin to not wearing condom. People that deals with centralized stuff such as Imgur is also publicly screaming they're not using VPNs as well so food for thought.
If this means somehow this community will stop posting content on that cesspool then great news for me, one replacement I can recommend for uploading anything on clearnet is Pomf provided by fellow Fedizen 7666.
And for the love of God stop using Catbox; it's slower, proprietary, blocks proxies, and allows less than half the filesize than lain.la's Pomf, overall trash file hoster.

People who say things like this will never get near a condom for it's intended use.

Good job Chenzo, you've proven once again how unconstructive you can be on a discussion.

My statement was uncalled for.
I personally find it amusing when people use metaphors for things they'll never understand from first hand experience.
It kinda makes the point they are making lose credit. Besides, I thought you were banned idk how many times now for simply annoying the community? Do you also work for the UK gov or Imgur?
Regardless, I hope you are doing well.
Edit: Admins/Mods, please feel free to nuke these posts between Sally and I, as they are indeed unconstructive to the subject topic. On the other hand, we all need a good laugh in the face of government based tyranny.

Pomf's shut down for now.
The announcement on the website -> >link<
Guess it's back to the drawing board to find a reliable image hosting service?
Well, in any case, I can share how I do it and keep it visible for Brits; I use ShareX + hosting on Flickr. It's good; it works; and it stays up. Just need a Flickr account to link to ShareX for uploading them.
