  Wait, why is imgur blocked in the uk?

    Because it might be porn. If websites are found to be serving 18+ content without rigorous Orwellian ID checks they can be fined out their fucking arse.

    A lot of websites have just blocked the UK entirely instead of dealing with that shit.

      If it’s blocked then why there are so many wankers. Sorry, couldn’t resist.

      On the serious note, isn’t age of consent is 16 in UK?

        Its 16 to do it, 18 to watch it.

  Have you tried Catbox? I see a lot of people on the Threadiverse using it

    I heared that Catbox is struggling financially.

    I use it from time to time, but I am not fully dependent on it. Because if it shut down at any time, all the memes, photos and videos becomes instantly lost media.

    You might feel like catbox will stay here forever, but looking at my internet experience, nothing stays forever.

      Embrace the zen.

      Draw your art in the sand of the Catbox.

      And then let it flow away, to start a new.
