I’ve been posting images from Gab.

I am now using Postimages.org for basic free posting. Happy so far.

Another vote for Imgur.

I’ve been posting my images from my own domain on this hosting service (Turbify). I wanted to transfer my site from their to the new host, whatever that turns out to be. If imgur can host a domain, that’s cool.

Been using postimages.org for many years, free and no issues.

Get a hard drive. Save your images. Upload to sites that are currently available for hosting or 4your timly display. When you want. Know they will change & 404 you, but with your backups you will be able to begin again.

The web changes.

Archive everything.

I’ve been getting some great advice on here — I knew I would — but is there anyway I can direct my current domain name to go to images in imgur, so that the images on old threads won’t get wiped out?

My domain, jimjambo.com, would get images from imgur.com, ideally, even if I give up the domain itself.

I’m with PostImage and a right click in a PC directory will send an “on Disk” file to a postimage directory of mine with subdirectories but I don’t get a chance to specify the directory.

It may be I have to be logged on to Postimage and opened the intended subdirectory?

Anyone?

An important point about this. If the file you copy from a source already has malware, where you store that malware will not remove that malware. Unless they have anti-malware software to check those uploads for you. Where you source them from is of the most importance. And checking them with your own local defenses before uploading or sharing them elsewhere is just as important.

A cloud storage account is so inexpensive you could have two for redundancy. For reference,

https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/storage/blobs/?ef_id=_k_8eeadee051261b612899bbc311dc82fc_k_&OCID=AIDcmm5edswduu_SEM__k_8eeadee051261b612899bbc311dc82fc_k_&msclkid=8eeadee051261b612899bbc311dc82fc

‘hot’ means something you’re linking so pages can go reference it; ‘cool’ is archival. So $0.018 per GB monthly and it’s not many more clicks to set up than one of the usual dropbox/onedrive or image-whatever places. (I presume Amazon and google are similar; just grabbed the first one for pricing)

No guarantees that one of these might some day pull ‘misinformation’ or whatever out of their hat but less likely than one of those name storage services.

This solution depends on you being moderately familiar with Linux servers, but it works perfectly for me.

• Sign up for a free Amazon AWS account
• Launch a "t3.nano" instance of Ubuntu 22 Linux, login (SSH)
• Install the Apache webserver, set up a simple HTTP/HTTPS site with a free Let'sEncrypt certificate via the certbot service
• Upload your images (SCP) into a directory path that matches your current one
• Maintain as needed (very little required)

Cost is instance+disk. The t3.nano instance is about half a penny per hour, which is about 4 bucks a month. Disk storage is about a dime per GB-month, so 5GB of storage for images on top of say 8GB for the system comes to another two bucks or so a month. There's a trivial network charge depending on how much people access (download) your images, but it's usually negligible.

Again, this approach requires some technical familiarity with Linux. Details on request.
