There's also https://up1.ca/, which is client-side encrypted and supports more than just images. (creators' voat post)

Or http://veuwer.com/ or https://picgur.org/ or http://postox.com/ or https://voatpic.me/.

All image hosts created for Voat and/or in protest of reddit and imgur.

That one scratches a slightly different itch. All images are encrypted client-side and sent to the server that way, so they must be decrypted inline on the site. This effectively means you can't hotlink to images and can't view them inline on Voat. So it's not as easy to use in exchange for some privacy.

Thanks for the info, I don't know all the technical stuff people are talking about here and I was using Vuewer until it went down. Used Slimgur and Imgur but not any more now I know about the other choices specifically for Voat

Archive.today, which couldn't stand up to ideological DMCA spamming, has been superseded by archive.is.

The anti-slimgur nonsense is foolish. Veuwer isn't even up atm.

archive.is points to the exact same service run by the exact same guy. He's had both domains for a while, along with archive.li.

Ah really? Then why did everyone suddenly swap to .is after the DMCA raids?

Very odd.

Yeah, slimgur's connection to fph means that it won't remove "offensive" content which is very much in line with voat's policy.

Voatpic was also made for voat, and the owner has stated in comments that the only way he'll remove photos is with a valid DCMA takedown request, i.e. illegal posts.

I said this right after the firing - "You want voat to grow, you want Reddit to burn. Stop pouring your traffic on the fire."

I know Imgur was created FOR reddit, but I thought it was separately owned. Why should we avoid it?

They're censorship happy.

Some of reddit's investors have also invested millions of dollars into imgur. They're not independent. When reddit's board makes a decision, they do so with a view to favor imgur and shut out competitors, and vice versa. This is almost certainly what happened with the hard banning (changed to a soft ban, when exposed) of slimgur site-wide.

There's a slimgur ban on Reddit?

From what I understand, they are using many of the same censorship policies as reddit.

Nope, a single VC firm (Andreessen Horowitz) has the main chunk of imgur and a big holding in reddit. reddit also has a direct stake in imgur.

Even when using the archived version of Reddit, content that is linked to imgur will drive traffic to imgur. There's no way around that.
