Every time I try to upload an image, I receive an error stating that my account is too recent to upload images.

I understand the mechanism, but I couldn’t find anywhere what the threshold is.

Additionally, I noticed this restriction also applies to community logo/banner, which is a bit more restrictive.

    I recommend Catbox.moe

    Imgur is convenient sometimes, but It’s impossible to trust them after they purged a large chunk of their images some time ago. They deleted all anonymous images, basically killing a large swath of old forums, guides, and sites containing information that we’ll never find again.

    Plus, they run imgur like a tacky social media site now, not an image hosting site.

    Another one I’ve tried. Works fine and is well known. imgbox.com

    Stolen from the sidebar of r/imguralternatives. Haven’t used them myself, but they are well known:

    • Lensdump | 100MB | NSFW allowed
    • Imgchest | 20MB | NSFW allowed
    • Postimages | 24MB | NSFW now allowed
    • Cubeupload | 5MB | NSFW not allowed

        Really? Dang. I’ll have to look up the problems then.

          If you research “catbox.moe” a few posts should appear. Seems like they are blocked in some countries for some reason

      A bit of an additional thing:

      I’ve had too many problems using both the lemm.ee uploader and imgur uploader using Summit on Android. Some images just refuse to upload. Switched to Catbox so I didn’t have to deal with the constant failed uploads.
