Imgur is wobbling. Any viable European alternative to shill? (sh.itjust.works)

Basically the title. People are currently upset with Imgur for layoffs or something and instead of doing the sensible thing of stopping it's use, they're flooding it. Seems like a good opportunity to shill an european alternative if it exists.

If images automatically get deleted after a certain amount of time, I could see it costing less to host, but that's just my gut feel. Not necessarily reliable, I think.

Letting the API be used by companies at a fee is also a possibility. Selling merch is also a thing. Affilate sales is yet another.

Then there's subscription services. If the site runs really smoothly, is intuitive to use, and cancelling easy, I could see that also being useful.
