So - Imgur has chosen death.

[Dynamo-Joe]

Welp! Time to find a new free image hosting platform. Imgur has decided to kill itself in a fit of political correctness and money grubbing.

https://techcrunch.com/2023/04/20/imgur-will-ban-explicit-images-on-its-platform-this-month/

Imgur is now to go the way of Photobucket, Tumbler and MySpace. Bon Voyage Imgur. It was a good run while it lasted.

EDIT: Oh - and they've started blocking VPN access as well. They really DO want to commit self-minecrafting! 

Will be looking around for another free image hosting site. I'll post here when I find a good one. (Feel free to post your own as well, by all means.)

It's probably best explained through the medium of song.
