🚨 Looks like imgur is now rate limiting lots of images on Nostr. I'm seeing this all over nostr:npub1lstr2kmdthkgfuzne8e4cn2nhr646x8jt25szdj7t4wr6xemtuuq3lczsj at the moment.

If you're still hosting you profile image on Imgur, it's worth moving it to something like nostr.build.

Yep, so much 429

Zero craic.

I feel like Imgur are also missing a great opportunity to respond with 402.

would be great if imgur was the last choice on the amethyst options so people wouldnt default to it and nostrbuild the first choice

#[4]​ change you implement that change? 🙏⚡️🤙

Yep.. gotta change that... Too bad.. they had the fastest CDN worldwide...

They’re not making money so it’s rational they’d limit like this. Paid relays, pay per image via LN is inevitable imo unless you want ads auto-inserted in your photo carousel when you upload to free sites.

THANK YOU for showing some technical details about this issue 🫂💜🤙

Was wondering if there was a better place than imgur. Would rather find a good image hosting site more friendly to these kind of apps. Even if I have to pay a little yearly for it.
