It's still fine for uploading and saving images. I just wish it had a better way of organizing them.

Ignore the community and just use it to store your images.

running a free image hosting site is extremely unsustainable

remember once upon a time, photobucket was good

they had to pivot to being a meme site in order to survive

lol photobucket died the day they disabled direct linking

it's an amazing example of what NOT to do to your shitty website

these sites aren't disabling/making it more difficult to direct link for fun. they're doing it because it fucks their bandwidth to have a 5MB image go viral and be viewed by thousands and thousands of people per second

paying for capacity as a free image hosting site is not exactly how you stay afloat. coincidentally disabling direct linking is not how you stay afloat either.

running an image hosting website is a bad idea
