Imgur has blocked the UK

Bought it, installed the script. I now get a broken image instead of your signature, which, when I try and open in a new window, gives me a broken duckduckgo link that says Safari can't open the page because it timed out.

You owe me £2.99 ;)
Image appears as a white border only for me.

Mmm Tampermonkey is free did you actually buy it?

It seems to be fine for me in Firefox

Safari tends to be quite far behind modern browsers in terms of features so it could be being problematic.

Yeah that's all my signature is!

I'm sorted now. On my Mac, I right click, select quick actions / upload to FTP. The picture is resized to 1000 pixels wide (if it's wider than than that), the orientation is checked to make sure it's vertical, the exif is largely stripped (but tweaked slightly) and it's pushed to my self hosting and a link copied to the clipboard.

On my iPhone, I do it via an upload php file on my sever through Safari, it gives me a prompt to select a picture from files or the camera roll. That picture is resized as above, it's checked to make sure it's vertical, the exif is stripped, and it's moved to the correct directory with a link being copied to the clipboard.

Remember folks, imgur used to strip out exif. If you don't do it as part of the process, every picture you share will include it (camera type, lens details, GPS location, etc). You might not want that!

maybe I've got something set on iphone but exported images aren't including GPS according to xnconvert - possibly I unknowingly configured that, globally, on phone telling it not to gps share/track though.

Tagged/unstripped web and product links, folks post are equally pernicious - do they actually reveal their amazon account say - if you investigated decoding them
(you can tell who uses firefox)
 
Out of curiocity does anyone know if the same has happened to France?

I ask as they implemented a very similar system about a few weeks prior to the UK's OSA.

Are these websites really going to start and continue blacklisting major economies?
 
Updated via Portainer and it broke the instance (:

Reverse-proxy failed and also unable to logon. I'll go for a clean install later.

e: actually even odder than. When connecting via Chrome or Edge, the reverse-proxy does work and I can logon. Just not via Firefox, which is my default browser!

That is odd. Updated via unraid docket and it’s been no issue.

:eek:

Forgot this.

Lucky Slink is set to remove it by default :)
 
This ruined my day, I regularly post in a couple of car forums on the progress on a couple of cars I'm working on. I've hundreds if not thousands of pictures hosted on imgur, linked to on those forum posts. My first thought was that I could try and rehost them with the same filename and then just change the first part of the URL in the forum posts (using find and replace). However it seems that all these image hosting sites add a random string between the hostname and the filename. Making it impossible to do a simple find and replace. The only thing I could think of is having a look-up table with the old vs new hosting URL and then a script to process each forum post (would have to save the contents of each post locally in bbcode).

Has anyone else looked into this and come up with a way to translate / transform / convert, imgur.com URLs to imgbb.com or postimage etc?

Here is an example below -

imgur.com

imgbb.com

Doesn't seem to work with 1.7.

For some likely alcohol related reason I didn't have IMAGE_STRIP_EXIF_METADATA=true in my original compose file. I've added that now, redeployed, inspected the running container, and I can see that setting. I've just tested uploading a file and can see all the exif data in the image still.

Code:
sudo docker exec slink printenv | grep IMAGE_
IMAGE_STRIP_EXIF_METADATA=true
IMAGE_COMPRESSION_QUALITY=80
