#22I've been hoping for an Imgur replacement for simple, hosted image sharing. I'm happy to pay $1/mo, but when I tried to upload https://camo.githubusercontent.com/9ec8d13de2878c899fda0bd43... I got this, which doesn't look like what I uploaded: https://cln.sh/4coS9T / https://imgz.org/i5qphFzd.gif
Nightmare fuel

Re: IMGZ – Paid image sharing
#24Very neat. The thing that scares me about doing any type of personal project for image sharing/hosting (especially with a free tier/trial) is that very quickly it will become a magnet for some very awful stuff. What are your plans for dealing with that?
CloudFlare has a thing where it automatically reports bad stuff to me and the authorities, and I turned it on, so hopefully all the abusers will be discouraged by that. Also I have their credit card info.

Well that's extremely odd, I will look into that right now. EDIT: This is very odd, I'm not really doing any processing on the uploaded files, so it should definitely return the originals. I will have this fixed soon though. EDIT2: Unfortunately, the saved image in the DB itself is corrupt, so you will need to reupload after I solve this. EDIT3: Alright this should be fixed! Now I can start submitting animated GIFs t…
Same for me. I tried uploading this test image - https://bhi61nm2cr3mkdgk1dtaov18-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/wp-...
(dont ask, lol)
and the uploaded image was a negative of it.

#27Strike while the iron is hot I guess, but not sure why you you are being such an ass in your copy, it's kind of a turn off, even if it is super cheap. Maybe it's a trend where if something is super cheap people tend to write in that style, but it kind of erodes trust, unless this is supposed to be a joke site, but the fact that I don't know really hurts your chance to actually get users to want to give you their emai…
That style reads like "ego defense."
As in, "if I make sure it looks like I didn't try hard, then it can't hurt when they say..."

Oh yes, sorry! I legally changed my username, apparently you can do this and dang was very accommodating.

> Looking for a dead-simple way to share some images but are ashamed of what Imgur has become?
I don't even know why I should be ashamed of what imgur has become. I still use it to host images I want to post to social media, be they funny memes, or screen shots of system/programming errors I'm seeking help solving. It works fine. What's the problem with imgur exactly? I imagine I'm not the only imgur user who doesn't notice any issue with it.
