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

    Is pixelfed really a good way to prevent dead links? I don’t know much about it other than that it’s part of the fediverse, so I’d assume any pictures hosted there last only as long as the instance they’re posted to.

        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…
