for the longest time a lot of images posted to reddit were really posted on imgur (until they started hosting it on their own, too). is there a fediverse'd imgur we should be using to complement lemmy? its docs say it shouldn't be used for large images and videos.

pixelfed seems more like a federated flickr or instagram, not just simple image/album hosting like imgur. thoughts? ty ๐Ÿ’™

Have a look at PixelFed, not being an Imgur user I can't tell if it will meet all your requirements but it's definitely a great way to publish images in the fediverse

pixelfed looks like it is catered towards creative artists who make images. they deserve their own tool/space, of course, and imgur was never really catered to anything except whatever images and gifs you can throw at it
