Yeah, I posted that to [email protected] from my lemmy.ca account. I figured that if the admins aren’t answering questions via Matrix or whatever, maybe someone there would have an answer. (So far, nothing more than the same kind of speculation that’s happening here.)
I will add that many of us who work remotely using publicly accessible wifi also use VPNs, and Imgur actively blocks IPs from multiple commercial VPN providers. If you want those users to see the image you’re sharing, Imgur is not the way to go.
Pixelfed works well with other Fediverse services like Kbin and Lemmy. Try hosting there!
