Make sure you use https://pypi.org/project/imgz_cli/ , I love it: 02:07:53 $ imgz uruav-dji-fpv-porturuav-dji-fpv-port02.jpg Page URL: https://imgz.org/i32hJdL8/ Image URL: https://imgz.org/i32hJdL8.jpg So nice.

Is there ShareX code?

No but there's an API and (I assume, I don't use Windows) you can easily add support for it.

All of which disable sharing for a file if bandwidth usage is too high. That leads to the question. How much bandwidth does imgz stand up to? It says it's "included" so no charges, but quota is not clear. - edit - >No. I don't know. It's not a problem yet. If it becomes a problem, I'll make it your problem, but I think we're gonna be okay. Looks like there's no quota for now.

The bandwidth limit for the aforementioned services is probably higher than when stavros will make it your problem?

You'd think so, but have you ever tried to share a file from one of these services to a popular forum or subreddit?

They don't list their per file bandwidth quotas because they are incredibly low, suitable for cloud storage, not for file sharing, especially not mass sharing.

It seems like there's a dispute of fact, whether this person was paying you or not: you say "You had a free account," and they say they were a paying customer. I don't think "half a decade ago" is a reasonable time horizon after which to consider accusations of outright fraud irrelevant. If this person is telling the truth, then not only did you defraud them a few years ago, but you're lying about it now; this seems…

I found and posted the email thread where he admitted to not having a paid account. He also managed to get into his account fine (that's how he saw that the data wasn't there), so the stuff about the username isn't accurate either. I can look at payment records, but I've literally never had a single complaint of paid users' data being deleted by accident. I don't think he wants to hurt me (who cares about me or my se…

Publicly accusing you of fraud is at the very least malicious disregard for the truth if it's a false accusation. This is supposed to be Hacker News, not Character Assassination News. (That's Twitter.)

iCloud has a 50GB plan for $1/mo. OneDrive does 100GB for $2/mo, GDrive for $1.67/mo.

The quota is "whenever CloudFlare decides I've used too much of their caching", I think. Hetzner is pretty great about bandwidth, I think they'll let me use as much as will saturate the connection to the DC.

I was so confused by the absence of a login form, below "Already have an account? No you don't. Try to log in below if you think you do anyway." Turns out uBlock was hiding the form; possibly one of my 'social' blocklists. Just in case anybody else runs into that problem!

Actually I have the exact same problem. I should fix that... EDIT: Fixed, thanks!

Oh wow, quick response & fix haha. Thank you! You might've just convinced me to pay for the service. Looks good.

I was fine with all of it except the domestic violence jokes. Those weren’t funny enough to warrant the topic.

Alright, I'll bite. Which one? Seriously scoured the pages searching trying to be offended, couldn't find a "domestic violence joke". - edit - Ah the ToS, the one thing I never read. I thought it was pretty funny FWIW. Never got the point to being offended by a joke myself or on someone else's behalf. Jokes help you cope and heal, they work wonders for overcoming dark situations. The trick is to lighten up and learn…

That's a bit of a liberal retelling. You had a free account, the system sends you one (or two, I forget) emails if your free account is inactive, and if you don't log in for a few months it deletes the data to make room for others. There was a period where I didn't keep backups of the data on free accounts, but people complained, so I added that. I think it's a bit unfair to expect me to keep account data around fore…

The fact that you are putting customer chats in public forum without their consent is just terrible.

There is a difference between creating a public record and correcting the public record.
