I personally use every single one from the list except for Imgur one. Will start using it.

I would like if the redirection is done directly from browser without an extension (opt-in).

rimgu is another one that popped up around the same time imgbin started commits. Supports a little bit more out of the box, galleries with comments and albums. But the both are VERY new projects

Author here. It was a funny coincidence, I had this in the back of my mind for a year or two, being annoyed by the imgur interface getting worse and worse. Then just after I finally got around to making and publishing it, I discovered that imgin had been started almost the same day!

We talked briefly about potentially merging them but for now they live independently. rimgu still has more functionality, I think, but more alternatives are never a bad thing.

I had the opposite idea: https://imgz.org

I see you already accept BTC. Some ideas:

Integrate lightning payments To prepay on per-image basis. Using lnurl you can then use it for auth and don’t even need to have users register accounts!

That sounds interesting but is not worth the work for the zero people who will use it.

I tried a number of times already through Privacy Redirect and I really want to like it, but it just doesn't cut it mostly speed-wise. E.g. teddit takes about twice as much time to load subs as reddit does, and that's already not exactly fast, and especially with Invidious servers are down often. Just wondering if other also have issues, perhaps this is location-based?

teddit loading slow is a known problem, it loads everything on the backend before sending to the user.
