Why keep using that cess pool Imgur, when you can upload your meme directly to Lemmy?

Storage cost, since Lemmy previews vids just fine, might as well save up admins a bit of donation budget

but if you really want I can flood upload your instance with those mp4s lol

I do agree about not bogging instances down with attachment media costs on top of everything else, but there are alternatives to Imgur like Catbox made for this type of hosting

catbox is great, and i learned a few days ago that they also have a service for temporary uploads (max. 3 days, 1Gb) at https://litterbox.catbox.moe/

Can you explain to me what "this type of hosting" means ?

I have no clue what's wrong with imgur either .

[-] Th4tGuyII@fedia.io 5 points 4 months ago

Image and media hosting.

I can't speak for @wesker@lemmy.sdf.org, but personally it's a pain in the backside to use with a VPN, so I tend to opt for alternatives

Thanks, I'll look into it
