imgur is an image hosting silo that seems to ironically depend on js to show you an image, except for 48.gif.

As of 30 September 2025, imgur is blocked for all uses in the UK: Imgur access in the United Kingdom .

Compliments

Like a lot of Silo's Imgur makes it quite trivial to post images, including anonymously via their API

Criticism

Can have quite a childish audience and problematic interactions. NSFW, potentially triggering: case and point
