For a long time now I have been using imgur, but I got to thinking and wondered if there was a better site.

It would be nice if the site also allowed linking directly to the image file instead of having to go to their site. Also, an option to delete the image in-case I accidently dox myself after posting a screenshot.

After a bit of searching, I found PasteBoard and ImageVenue, but I haven’t tried them out yet.

What is everyone else using?

    Catbox seems to work pretty well, but do note that they are blocked by government censorship in some countries (see their FAQ).

      That’s what’s keeping me from using it. My understanding is that if I link an image from there, users in the UK and Australia won’t see it

          Hm you’re right, I just tried it from a VPN and it worked fine. Not sure what that’s about then, maybe I will start using it

            Hi! I’m in the UK and use catbox for all my images here on lemmy. I read that I’m not supposed to be able to access it but I’ve not had any issues
