Most Fediverse software supports image uploads, so there’s no reason to use Imgur for image hosting. Hell, even on my small single-user server (atomicpoet.org), image hosting is easy peasy. Not only is Imgur not needed, they’re an annoyance for those of us who are used to seeing images natively on the Fediverse.
I know habits are hard to break, but just remember: this isn’t Reddit 🙂
What do you suggest when uploading a photo when commenting through an app? Most apps I have tried in the past including the one I’m on right now just upload to Imgur and paste a link in for you.
What is your suggestion for mobile users then?
use a web browser…even on your phone…
No? That defeats the whole purpose of not wanting to use the browser app(s) on my phone.
That’s like saying “just browse Reddit on your safari browser on your phone forehead and you won’t have to worry about Apollo shutting down or any other 3rd party app”
Such short-sightedness.
Thers’s plenty of other good reasons not to use non-free closed source “SaaS” like reddit.
then again, if your phone has “safari browser” you probably are unable to be reasoned with anyway.
Stop your Apple bad elitist bullshit. No one wants that and it isn’t at all helpful to the conversation about what apps achieve the solution OP looking for
I like it lol
Apple users need to be taken down a peg.
It’s not a competition, users of anything are just people looking for a product that works best for them
I disagree, I think Apple users are elitist picks who care about brand recognition way more than is healthy. Text bubble color, seriously? The level of peer pressure that young people face to use apple products is unhealthy for society.
Oh nooo not an android user. I bet you also use Linux because you’re not like those other tech nerds.
Take your elitism out of here.
Not wanting to use the browser is its own purpose? Of course I understand if you want to use a specialized app that offers more features, better usability, nicer layouts than the original websites of the services they are for. But using a specialized app just because it’s not the browser (which, by the way, it often really is anyway), why that?
Web browsers are terrible on a phone. There’s a reason apps exist
Funny, I use web browsers because apps are almost universally terrible. Tons of white space, suck up all your data, need a sign in which usually just redirects to a web page anyway, bloated, run slower, oh and most important of all I can’t block ads.
No, [every company in existence], I do not want to download your app.
