I mainly use imgur to upload screenshots using sharex, would appreciate being pointed in the direction of any alternative.

    Imgur announced recently they are going to be purging images that haven’t been viewed for x amount of time.

      Haven’t they always, though? Pretty sure since the beginning it purged anything that hasn’t been viewed for something like 6 months or so. That’s why you got a lot of dead links in old Reddit (or others) posts

        I don’t think so, I’ve never had this happen in the few cases where I revisited an imgur url after years of not visiting it

      If you’re just shitposting dank memes, having the pictures deleted after a while shouldn’t be a big problem. If you’re posting something a bit more valuable, consider keeping the pictures on flickr or even pixelfed.
