A no BS image host would: 1 - be free 2 - require no login or javascript 3 - give you direct links, without ads or tracking This site fails at least the first two tests. There used to be sites that passed all of these, and really were no BS image hosts. Sadly, I haven't seen one in many years. Now pretty much all of them at least require logins or javascript.

#252Anyway, as much as I can appreciate that aspect and enjoy the fun of it, I just can't see myself using CLI for quick and simple image hosting. Especially if we're talking about things like meme sharing.
I definitely do see the market opportunity, to some extent that's why we launched Fast.io to make managing static asset hosting really simple and scaleable by syncing with your cloud storage so you can upload and manage content there.
I like it but I think you need a better way to upload images if you want to be a valid alternative to imgur.

#253I have 15 GB free on Google Drive and something similar on Microsoft OneDrive. Sharing files is as easy as dragging the file to a folder on my PC and right clicking to get a link that I can paste into email, IM, etc. How is IMGZ better?
We launched a service recently (fast.io) that lets you publish that content from your OneDrive or Google Drive right to a CDN too. No storage limits, and 100GB a month of traffic. We aren't specific to image hosting, but if you want to host a meme on a CDN, it's similarly super easy.
