Anyone remember the beginning of Flickr? It was really the best thing ever. Really! Glad to see this happen, big time.
It was so nice, back before you had to worry about being the product. I’d love a simple photo sharing service now that the only thing high-res on Facebook are the ads.

Flickr was, I think, one of those "Web 2.0" thing. I got in a few months after it started. I remember a good friend who became sorta millionaire building tools for Flickr (I think he retired in the Himalayas or near it with his family). I remember him more vividly because his test account was my Flickr account - an account with enough photos not to choke his tool, and other test options. In turn, I learned quite a lot of photography skills.
On Safari macOS 13.0.1 with the usual AdBlocker, I cannot scroll past the splash. Something seems to be covering it. Anyways, Flickr was a large part of my life when I started with Sony's point-n-shoot digital camera in early 2000s.

Flickr, in my opinion has a wide enough base of people, generally interested in photography, to mirror some of the positive effects of sharing to Instagram.

In my opinion there is still a potential for rewamping the platform and make it even better.
Happy to see Flickr continue to find ways to live on.
Fun fact: Flickr started as a never ending web-based game where photos became a highly used feature. Similar to how Instagram came to be.
