IMGUR upload issues

Is anyone able to use Imgur? It keeps giving us an overcapacity error.

Since imgur changed their policy, they ban entire IP ranges of servers, VPNs etc...

I think they want to kill themselves.
The only solution I found is to go through an image host like Storj and use the Storj plugin.

No other solutions because there is no other plugin for another free host for nodebb.

@torn2 Imgur is purging all images not uploaded by a registered account, which is why you're getting that message.

This is why I won't ever use image hosting platforms.

Same things with registered account for me.
The Ip of my Hetzner server was banned (confirmed by support) and they not respond to debvan.

And the images are no longer displayed if I use several VPNs = Ban VPN IP range.

IMGUR sucks

2 Solutions: Host yourself or host elsewhere (paid or free)

Please note the nodebb S3 plugin no longer works on V3.x but Storj plugin yes.

Thanks @brazzerstop you save my life
