Imgur links suck (kbin.social)

Most Fediverse software supports image uploads, so there's no reason to use Imgur for image hosting. Hell, even on my small single-user server (atomicpoet.org), image hosting is easy peasy. Not only is Imgur not needed, they're an annoyance for those of us who are used to seeing images natively on the Fediverse.

I know habits are hard to break, but just remember: this isn't Reddit ๐Ÿ™‚

I use https://postimages.org/

It is very reliable and supports uploading images upto 24 mb in size and 10k x 10k pixels.
