No probs! Haven't personally tried Imgur alternatives, but here's a few to choose from

I'm wondering if Lemmy (and maybe the fediverse generally) has the potential to offer incoming Reddit mods something Reddit can't: compensation.
Obviously it won't be huge, but I feel like there's a greater chance that a Lemmy user will make at least small one-off or even regular donations to help keep their communities and/or instances running.
Like if I'm running a server, voluntarily paying $50/month as, say, the mod of a 20M+ user subreddit might, even if 20 users contribute $2.5, that's a full month's worth of server time paid for.
As I say, the scale would be quite low, but wonder if it could be an interesting idea to try out, even if just as a proof-of-concept.
Just in case milk is all that's keeping you from full-blown veganism, supplements are a great alternative ;) (not to mention way cheaper, as you can get a year's worth of supplements for something like $20!)
Completely tangential, but Invidious is a great, self-hosted alternative front-end to YouTube. So for example, instead of the YouTube link:
Just copy the "watch?v=..." to an Invidious instance. Two of my favourite public instances as examples:
- https://invidious.snopyta.org/watch?v=HhNLkKw7ClM&feature=youtu.be
- https://yewtu.be/watch?v=HhNLkKw7ClM&feature=youtu.be
This lets you watch/share YouTube videos with zero ads, zero tracking and fast speeds :) The only drawback is you can't comment/like, but it's a fairly small one IMHO. Have a good one!
I just want to say a HUGE thanks for volunteering your resources. I've got an account on another instance that's on a "high quality" VPS, and it's gone down a few times, whereas I haven't experienced any downtime over here :) (nothing with the other instance either, it's an amazing, well-run instance too and I've created a lot of my favourite communities on it).
So thank you!
