Are your user-hostile policies making people flee your social network? (i.imgur.com)

I can’t view the pic. FYI, #imgur is itself user-hostile. Specifically, it’s of the tor-hostile variety. Sometimes it works but often it kicks Tor users to the curb. Doesn’t sh.itjust.works support images? If not, you might be on a user-hostile platform ;)

It felt pretty user-friendly when Memmy automatically uploaded it to imgur for me.

Just fyi, “user friendly” doesn’t always just mean “easy”. The fact that imgur kicks users using tor means it doesn’t respect you’re right to privacy, and thus is not user friendly.

I had this issue in Firefox as well. Does Firefox automatically block embedded image links from Imgur? It goes without saying that Tor is based on Firefox.

I use #ungoogledChromium over Tor which does not involve FF. And in this case imgur failed initially (when I posted about it), but just now it worked.
