Well, Imgur was started by Reddit users for Reddit users, and then was absorbed into the Reddit Borg cube once it became profitable enough. That photo is from an early meetup sponsored by Imgur. When FPH was about to get banned, they dug up that photo and put it in their sidebar with the caption "Even the dog is fat". That sealed their fate.
A few years later Reddit managed to hire an SJW with actual database experience and they developed their own image hosting, and unceremoniously kicked Imgur to the curb.
What's the moral here? Fuck if I know, I'm drunk. Fuck fat people, I guess.
