Is there any good alternative to imgur for uploading screenshots? (beehaw.org)

I mainly use imgur to upload screenshots using sharex, would appreciate being pointed in the direction of any alternative.

If you choose to use Pixelfed, you should probably be active in your chosen instance and donate regularly.

I suppose you're right, though that's quite involved when all I want is to host an image.

Using flickr or google would be a lighter option. If you put some pictures in a place like that, they are probably going to stay there, but the TOS does leave a very convenient backdoor open. If flickr messes up a database migration, or the datacenter gets hit by a meteor one day, and all of your photos disappear, you can’t hold them accountable. Every option has some issues…
