Don't get me wrong, nostr.build and nostrimg are awesome homegrown solutions, but I'm surprised Amethyst is the only client so far that has made use of Imgur's API!

It looks like a pretty solid option as far as I can tell, and they've already proven to have the infrastructure for it.

imgur is a short term win (and desirable rn tbh); however, more sustainable is a spec, so that users can choose/bring their own image uploader. as long as it conforms to spec, clients can list whichever they desire

Sounds interesting. I’m going to have look at Imgur.

Yes, that is so true. It's a real handy feature to upload images straight from the amethyst client which makes it so easy to use.

For sure. Iris and Snort allow you to upload images right in the client too, but they only have nostr.build, nostrimg, and void.cat (snort) as options, no Imgur built in.

I see

Wow, didn’t know amethyst could do this
