I dislike a lot of things about imgur, you can't even save a gif on mobile. I would rather use an alternative. I might pay if the service meets my needs. But I have to use btc, which many don't realize can cost 4-5x more than what you charge. For example $10 for me means I have to get btc for $50 to avoid using creditcard(they charge many times more to use cash,etc.... Than using creditcard on an exchange which also asks for ID.)
I do that for other services but it does not change how I have to spend more,which is fine but more is more and I will spend only if it really solves my needs.
