FYI: TIL of 2 privacy friendly imgur alternatives
Seen on Suggesting: Embedding images and files : privacy
This first one integrates with ShareX (AFAIK it's Windows only):
Genuine question: since the images are public either way, what’s the main concern regarding privacy? Having the app on your phone? Imgur getting information about people viewing the image?
I'm not an expert, so I cannot answer properly, but this is (an edit of) what the linked post says:
I guess it comes down to what kind of data they’re able to get from people viewing the image or the person uploading it.
Interesting. I mostly used https://catbox.moe, thanks for this!
I prefer not to use that specific service because they block viewing access to Tor users, so they end up not being able to see images that are hosted on that site.
