Hi, I just want to be sure because it seems like the rules have changed about this topic and I don’t see anywhere where it’s explained clearly.

One month ago I posted a meme uploaded on ImgBB just fine. Today I did the same thing and my account has been immediately banned. I contacted the mods via mail and one person was kind enough to reply almost immediately and unban me, which is cool and you guys running the instance are awesome.

That being said, I’d like such an incident not to occur again. So, can I have a recommendation about image hosting sites that won’t get me banned? Is Imgur safe? Catbox? Are there other alternatives? I’d rather not upload pics directly on lemmy.world servers.

Thanks in advance.

    Unfortunately ImgBB has been previously used to post CSAM on Lemmy so the admins may have adopted some kind of automatic filter for that site in particular. So really anything besides that should be fine, Imgur is good afaik.
