i can't post my furry porn on imgur tho nor follow my favorite naked people here.
liberate21
Twitter has porn so
GeefBravy
There's actual porn websites though why would someone get their porn from Twitter?

Imgur is just screenshots from Twitter and videos from tiktok.

Imgur has gone massively downhill. But it’s still incredibly better than Twitter ever was

imgur is ok for some decent meme browsing content, but that's not what I use twitter for.
RummageSaleBubbler
Don't join Twitter to witness the dumpster fire, imgur will keep you updated. When the ship sinks you wanna be far enough from the undertow.
invaderjay87
Does IMGUR keep me updated on the fires starting up around my area? Does it give live updates? No it doesn’t does it?
RummageSaleBubbler
Global dumpster fires get better coverage. For local dumpster fires, you'll need the new imgur-hyperlocal; I hear it's free with Emerald.

Does your local news not?

Is Reddit better than Imgur? Yes. I remember when this site was good many moons ago.

whitebbwolf
then why is the FP often full of Twitter and TikTok Reposts??
GeefBravy
Because there is funny people on there. Just a vast amount of absolute toads as well. No disrespect to toads

Yet we see thousands of twitter screen shots posted on imgur regularly
Snooj
Imgur isn't better than Twitter; they are two different platforms with two separate goals.
GeefBravy
It's the goals I'm referring to. Twitter just riles people up. Arguing with each other. I see the irony. I see it.
Varenvel
have you seen comments of imgur? , did get 60+ downvotes about talking about how hard is to be lgbt in my country due supression here>
Varenvel
as soon you post something who is unpopular , or god forbit "truth" imgur loses his mind and you get 10 , 20 or 30 downvotes>
Varenvel
who is worse then on twitter
BatLadyRielle
All social media has the potential to "rile people up". That's humanity baby.
loser9999
Ehhh...
invaderjay87
Yeesh, the copium. IMGUR doesn’t have mature content and half the content comes from TikTok, Twitter, Facebook, 9Gag, iFunny, etc.
invaderjay87
Look, IMGUR is fine, but it’s not better than Twitter in every way. Twitter is just better for content creators and indie advertising.
invaderjay87
IMGUR is too random and jumbled unless you go looking for what you want. There’s no real algorithm here. No recommendations at all.
GeefBravy
I prefer no algorithm. Tiktok and twitter constantly show me misogynistic garbage purely because I'm a man. Downvoting is the way forward.
invaderjay87
They’re 2 completely different sites doing 2 completely different things. It’s like saying, “Chocolate is better than Strawberry?” Ya goofy.
GeefBravy
I would be mad but you did call me goofy which I LOVE
poochyena
Ah yes, no arguing can ever be found on imgur! nope
GeefBravy
HOW DARE YOU
syntaxxor
IMGUR has become a shell of what it used to be. It's on par with the bullshit from Twitter. Two sides, one coin.

Imgur is still about 30% twitter screenshots.
ActionJohnnie
Inception intensifies
dazergolf
twitter screenshots = creme de la creme. best of whatever
Inarticulated
So 70% better?
invaderjay87
That other 70% is TikTok, 9Gag, Instagram, and iFunny. Imgur doesn’t even have its own identity. It’s instagram for not hot people.
Metlahaed
Excuse you, I am very attractive and don’t have Instagram.
userlessname
I'll take the twitter screenshots - whenever I try to view it in twitter, it feels like I just fell down my apartments garbage chute...
XXXSpork
Same for Tik Toc
Iliketacos42
And 30% Reddit caps
tarnok
Can't wait for twitter to die and no more screenshot
Baeloro
I explain it this way: you have your Twitter, YouTube, reddit, Facebook, and Instagram. The big boys. Then you imgur, which aggregates all
Baeloro
the content from those places. You can have a bunch of social media, or just browse the best of it through imgur.
ChalkCoatedDonut
It could be better if 8 of 10 posts aren't politics or the "how my country is on fire and i am not doing anything about it" kind.
Lulabel73
Twitter is imgurs main source of content.
Bossvoss
Yeah but Twitter doesn’t overheat my phone so I can only use it a couple minutes at a time. iPhone 13 pro for those about to @me
Faaaaantastic
Galaxy note 9. No noticeable rise in heat regardless of how long I browse
DrPepper523
My pixel 7 has also been getting hot when I use imgur.

MadeYouLookAgain
Fuck that! This place used to have so many more users and was better for it!
downrightmike
invaderjay87
Oh you are in for a rude awakening. This place has gone super lib, in the worst way. Have a difference in opinion? Prepare to get nuked.
MadeYouLookAgain
“Has gone” no *has been. Maybe like in the early early days but it’s been very liberal for many years.
invaderjay87
I’m a progressive lib myself, but if you practice an ounce of nuance, play devil’s advocate, or point out a hypocrisy, you’ll get tanked.
invaderjay87
Welcome to IMGUR. The site that thinks it’s the new Twitter but really it’s the poor man’s IG filled with content from TikTok, Reddit, etc.
MadeYouLookAgain
Is this your original account? Been banned and restarted?
scottEkarate
Twitter is fine until you click on a tweet and start reading the comments
GeefBravy
Yeah it's like that's a nice logo. I ain't gonna click on it but good for you! Little birb
AZRAELSBLADE
Imgur is one of the few places I can go to for news on Ukraine and Iran. Shame that after about 5min my phone overheats and burns me
Daarst
Please don't use imgur as a news site. Use something like NPR, AP, etc...
Yellowchopsticks
Imgur is for news in meme form.
HedonistBeard
Imgur is for memes about the news that the hivemind find interesting delivered in a limited and often misleading fashion.
ParallelParkingInABurka
Get an older version of the app! (and then disable automatic updates)
DrPepper523
Which one? Cuz I got one today, it's great, an old beta, no ads no overheating...but the chat is the older version before they switched it.
DrPepper523
This is what I've been using today. It's great only thing I'd noticed so far was chat was broke https://ihackedit.com/imgur-mod-apk/

older one from approx. when I remembered my problem to have started & then worked my way forwards or backwards.
loma45
Imgur is good about general events, but good lord do not take the specifics you see here as fact. They very often are not.
UmAcshually
Yeah. Imgur is good if you want to know "Russia is waging a brutal war in Ukraine". But anything past that, you get "Ghost of Kyiv" and a >

ton of other propaganda/fake news stuff almost daily, as well as people debating in comments about total nonsense ("Will the missile that >

major events in the war... But 80% of the posts are total trash and 20% are just very surface level
HedonistBeard
You mean it's where you can go for the headlines that you then google to find the actual correct story, right? Because it sure isn't news.
OmegaKamidake
Yeah I've been using a version since before ads, might want to look into downgrading

I was curious if this was happening to others. I just got a brand new phone and thought maybe it was the new phone. Guess it's the new app
HedonistBeard
Yeah, imgur may be better than twitter in some ways, but the app is not one of them. The app is a reminder of why imgur is a dying site.
DrPepper523
For anyone else looking https://ihackedit.com/imgur-mod-apk/ it works, labels as Imgur Beta but is the older version. Will continue to test
DrPepper523
The chat doesn't seem to be working. So if anyone remembers when the chat got changed, that'd be great to know so I can find a diff one
Emiloo74
Yep. My phone gets hot and the app gets slooooow af.

Yeah this app is the hottest of garbage
DrPepper523
Yeah I need to go find the old version of it I was using without ads. Someone had posted a link to download it, I need to find it again
