Likely more specifically those on VPN or in a specific geographic region. That being said
https://catbox.moe/ is excellent. and certain instances support direct image uploads. In the interest of avoiding huge companies it would certainly be best to try to use less restrictive services
Yeah, it does that for some VPNs. As well as blocking uploads from Ukraine, which is only given as Something went wrong with CREATE_ALBUM_FAIL. Please try later
A part of the awesome modern web experience.
Some VPNs are completely blocked on random websites, Slovakia Swan Mobile (4ka) keeps getting blocked by Google Captcha, Ukrainian Lifecell keeps getting blocked by Cloudflare, Czech T-Mobile keeps getting blocked by Reddit, etc.
my instance significantly limits image size and i get the same flame comments when i use catbox which is blocked by some ISPs.
if it’s such a problem for you, grab the image from imgur and mirror it to a media server that works for you and post a link in the comments. saves everyone time and actually improves the situation rather than contributing meaningless discord.
This is what the majority of people trying to see your image get when you use imgur to upload something on lemmy:
For crying out loud stop using imgur.
Is it really a majority? It’s fine for me on Boost.

Lots of people cant with catbox.moe files.
Works fine for me as well. Don’t think I’ve ever had any imgur issues tbh

This is caused by Imgur blocking your VPN or region, not Lemmy. Try switching VPN servers.
