Any good blocklist will include rules that filter out the complete cancer that is imgur. I can’t see your memes. Use something else, or just upload them to your instance.
I don’t get how people are still generating links to the actual image file listed on imgur. That shithole seems to have learned how to always direct you to their full dumpster website instead of just the image
I just press and hold on the image to “open image in new tab” and send that url. 60% of the time it works every time.
Yeah maybe a year ago they changed the direct linking to bringing you to a landing page. The new owners are determined to drive it into the ground.
A bunch of people started this project imgcat.io
Oh fuck yeah. Thank you!
Nah, get yourself a VPN.
Imgur blocks my VPN. It's one of the reasons I hate them. I'm not going to poke a hole in my network just to see what your ass was too lazy to actually post to your instance.
I’d be curious to hear how these dots are connected for you.
I assumed you can’t see the pictures because you’re in the UK.
If you're really interested in seeing imgur content without the tracking, you could use one of the imgur frontends.
Is imgbb still okay?
Isn’t imgbb the land of image not available?
Yes, because it had an optional feature to automatically delete the image after a certain amount of days

Is it really because “Imgur is cancer,” or are you just a UK person butthurt that you got geoblocked because Imgur refused to comply with your government’s censorship/attack on privacy?
If it’s the latter, go bitch at your MP, not us.

Well, I’d say imgur did the people of the UK an unintended solid in that scenario. But I am not located there.

It’d be kind of weird if anyone on SDF doesn’t know how to run a VPN, anyway.
