Their whole front page has dozens of these same images. And I’m not much of a imgur user to dig around.

    I’m old enough to 'member Imgur launching, around Christmastime as I recall. It was a way to make posting images on Reddit easier. How small and cozy the internet seemed back then.

      It seemed like imgur was the only hosting site for Reddit for the longest time. Then Reddit started self-hosting and imgur seemed to disappear.

        Not anymore. They turned it into it’s own social media. They have comments and stuff and apparently a lot of them really hate reddit lol.

          The Imgur upload page included posting it to their community by default as its final step. It wasn’t necessary to get a link but they didn’t make it clear for the longest time.
