Doesn't matter to me but I automatically give an upvoat to anyone who posts using slimgur.
It's just too cute. I get a kick out of the image hosting name every time I see it, especially outside of the FPH subverse.

Their front page is awesome, and it looks like we can post gifs again.

I only had a few images on Imgur but I removed all of them. I wouldn't want to give that site any traffic (= $) if someone comes across the images on a forum or something.

Exactly. Those fat fucking imgur bastards don't deserve a single iota of our shitlord traffic.

I'm not even using it to post pictures of obese people... not that there are any obese people were I live. If there were, it's not my personal style to take photos of random people - but I fully admit I engage in schadenfreunde via other peoples pictures, and not just of obese people. Yes; I'm a shitty human being.
As of now, it doesn't seem like their servers are being weighed (hurr) down. My thought is, the more traffic and exposure they can get, the better.

Just removed them. God that felt good to hit delete on some images that had 50k views.

It's kinda ironic to post fatties pics on a site call slimgur.
[–] journalistsarelazy 0 points 3 points 3 points (+3|-0) ago
I put a few on Imageham
[–] HoneyNutStallmans 0 points 2 points 2 points (+2|-0) ago
Let's post them on Thickr instead.

We shouldn't be giving those fat fucks any traffic at all.
Imgur is forever dead to me.

Same here, and besides, that weird little "Imgurian" community always gives me the creeps.
[–] Big_Bonered 0 points 2 points 2 points (+2|-0) ago
I agree, they're kinda fucking weird.

Fuck the weird little imgur community, our FPH/voat community is SOOO much cooler : P

I am using slimgur for everything not just FPH stuff
I'm currently up voting non FPH stuff on voat.
It's important to make voat balanced. The non FPH articles and links from reddit that you loved need to have a home here too.
By leaving imgur and reddit for everything, not just FPH stuff, that's how we send the message about censorship.

I miss a few of my old subreddits, but those will all be ported over in time I guess. Voat seems to have gotten it's act together and I'm really hoping this place pans out.
[–] RobotChicken 0 points 1 point 1 point (+1|-0) ago
True, voat is not, by far, just FPH. Most users will probably block it anyway, I don't care, as long as I we have our playground here.
[–] uberdoober 0 points 2 points 2 points (+2|-0) ago
Seeing as imgur is run by censorship loving fatties I would say HELL YES. Viva la Slimgur!
[–] teeheeh8r 0 points 2 points 2 points (+2|-0) ago
I would like to see more adds on voat and on slimgur. Ideally, we would get a sustainable and symbiotic relationship similar to that of reddit and imgur.

We have no reason to support Imgur, we have an alternative already setup so fuck them.
