Imgur

The site is filled with hate. Messages saying "kill all the Police" are not uncommon. I reported them to Imgur and nothing happen. It is cesspit congregating sad individuals manipulated by certain interest groups.

Imgur used to be a fun image-sharing website with nice spontaneous new meme trends & bandwagons, the occasional storytime, and cute dog gifs. I've struggled to find anything even remotely close to that for the past few years. The company has made it impossible not to use their app which doesn't work very well, tries to make up forced trends like "{insert random wannabe quirky thing no one's ever asked for} day!", and is far from above board with their mod practices. The community has followed, and most of the good fun meme-making users are gone, to be replaced by people who take themselves way too seriously and are quick to harass others. There are no more memes, and strictly nothing funny; this website has become the worst.

IMGUR might be the most toxic community I've ever seen. It is run by a group of lunatic leftists who will ban anyone who even remotely wavers from towing their political agenda. If you want a peek behind the scenes of Antifa's ideology and network, this is it. They call anyone and everyone they don't agree with fascists and nazis. Their power users, who are all linked up to a discord server which includes the mods and head of community routinely threaten violence and spin up mobs to attack other users.

I set up an account and posted the below picture, which was enough to get the account banned (irony intended).

One can only hope that the corporate advertisers wise up and recognize that they are associating their brands with a hate site.

It's a cesspool of people that love to attack one another and spread hateful comments. If you are too old, a different skin color, or a woman, I would avoid this place. It's got more hateful ideology than I've ever found anywhere outside of maybe Reddit.
On top of that, the mods let it happen and are on board with it. I pointed out that someone was being ageist and they could be fired for that in the real world, and they flagged my comment with a "warning" that it goes against their community standards. LOL what standards? These idiots need to take a long look in the mirror.

I commented on someone who posted that they don't know how to feel about trans women in women's sports. I commented but didn't say anything bad about trans people, i made a valid point. They threatened to suspend my account because it goes against their abusive, harassing, hateful, bullying, or discriminatory policy. Because I don't believe that a man should be allowed in a women's locker room and I can't get behind this movement that exposes young girls and women to rape and sexual assault they removed my comment and threatened to deactivate my account. They think they're these accepting and tolerant social justice warriors, yet if you don't agree with one of their ideologies you'll get banned.

This website has unfortunately devolved into an extreme liberal echo chamber. They celebrate conservative deaths and repeatedly call for violence against anyone who is even moderately conservative. This public forum needs to be regulated and controlled just like the liberals who have controlled facebook and twitter. Equality is a two way street.

The one site I thought I could actually express myself on, disregarded two posts that I tried to post that diffused suicide and was expressing my current situation on. I didn't go into detail of myself or anything but they shut me down, twice. $#*! them.

I was a member since it was just for image sharing. Now you can't post anything with being bashed. Literally anything. My last post was of 10 hot rods from a car show. The comment section turned political within 5 comments. I'm not too political but it eventually sucked me in. I posted some crime stats from the FBI.gov website and was shadow banned immediately! Made a new account and posted some stats from homeland security about being prepared. Immediately shadow banned. I contacted support and never ever heard anything back of why. I'm pretty sure they just block my email address. No matter who you are stay far away from this site if you believe in First Amendment. Because they sure are not for it. They preach freedom and democracy but they don't practice it. It's too bad. It's almost comical how bad this website is.

I used imgur for years. I used to really enjoy turning off and having a laugh with it. But I finally had to call it quits. Too many people on there are just hateful and angry. Some share personal stories that are uplifting or emotional (hence the one star for the rare good content) but inevitably it turns into a bunch of crying, whining, babies insulting each other. God forbid you try to be a voice of reason. Just walk away and save yourself the pain of watching the degradation of society in front of you. Unfortunately, woman tend to be the target of many of the hate. I don't engage in the comment section, but it can be difficult to ignore the more angry ones. There are better sites with better people out there. Pass on this one.

When photobucket decided to take the whole internet hostage, ruining forum content, etc. with no warning, the internet needed to look elsewhere (seriously, who would pay $399/year?). Where did the internet go? Imgur. Thank you for the great service you provide. We really do appreciate it! Great site, works better than photobucket ever did and it's free!

This site is garbage. People are allowed to harass and/or stalk you if you disagree with their opinion. The mods here genuinely don't give a $#*!. I would literally pay for front row seats to watch the people on this site kill themselves.

If you're not an extreme left winger, you are not allowed to voice an opinion. They will delete your comments immediately without any explanation, just because it doesn't fit with their agenda. IMGUR is the most petty online community I've ever seen. Don't bother visiting IMGUR.

Imgur hires mods with left wing bias and is expressed in their daily operations. I can't count how many times I made a comment critical of Socialism and it gets taken down without warning or explanation. This is not on their TOS and violates their own TOS and supposed ethos. Imgur is a socialist propaganda echo chamber.

Imgur goes to great lengths to police their platforms but does so in favor of high output users. So it becomes a power dynamic and if you say something they disagree with especially on Sunday when there are no moderators, then they will multi report you and get you a 24 hour ban in which you cannot defend yourself. They literally practice and allow censorship, but in a narrative changing way. Very toxic and allows abusers to feel they have a place to dominate others.
They added filters now to block unwanted tags, political serial posters, and now you can also block anyone who harasses you or you suspect may be dis genuine, etc. Doesn't change the fact that many users are simply to is and can still see and harm your content activity.

Imgur used to be great 10+ years ago. Now it's filled with obviously promoted propaganda and censorship. Well there was even censorship 10 years ago. I remember posting pictures and art and being made fun of by nasty toxic drones. I tried to post a picture about the millions of people starving in Yemen and it got down voted and censored. That is both disgusting and disturbing. These people have no souls. Total narcissistic psychos. It's still okay for hosting private images I guess, but for entertainment it's garbage.

You go there expecting fun, entertaining, and/or informative content. What you get is a bunch of cat pics, and re-posts. Also worth mentioning they looove animals, but 'bacon tho'. Dumb, unoriginal posts from attention horse. Deleted my account now, as I know all I need about how to make sure my CV is on point, as well as my eyebrows.

Imgur is not a place for decent, original human beings who are creative and come up with their own stuff. If you look at anything art related that is posted, it gets immediate hate and has a bunch of 30 year old men with no jobs, live in their mom's basement and have cheeto dust all over their long, crusty beards saying how trash it is. If what I just said describes you, then congratulations! You should go to Imgur! But chances are, you are an actual intelligent human being if you understand how toxic it is and you are reading this. So yeah, would not recommend, -100/10

This is a hate site. There is no room for opinions that oppose the totalitarian regime. All shall be silenced who question the czars of Imgur. It is a left-wing police state. Don't use Imgur unless you are a far left-winger and just want to hear your own opinions spoon fed back to you in the great echo chamber. Imgur dulls the mind quickly as there is no real intellectual debate or conversation. Logical arguments back and forth do not exist. I'm guessing Imgur is probably fun for teenagers who think they are the next Che Guevara or something. Anyway, thank you for attending my TED talk.

Desperate women seeking whatever attention they can get through soft porn posts. Thirsty guys lavishing them with praise while hiding in their white armor and ganging up on anyone who disagrees. Its like Tinder. But the worst, by far is the terrible mods, they feed into this circlejerk while claiming they dont, they are outright hateful to anyone they dont approve of, and they will never change so long as the same desperate women and thirsty men keep giving them ad revenue.

They are legitimately terrible people filled with malice and greed and have no business trying to say they are good.

The front page of featured images are packed with Trump-hate and radical left wing content even some calling for white genocide and to "kill all whites". None of that ever gets removed in fact it get's upvoted. Yet I got my post removed for "violating community guidelines" but all it was was a simple post about the fact that Georgetown lost to Colorado after kneeling for the anthem it didn't have anything actually violating in it. It's basically Twitter now but with more GIFs and a downvote button. Avoid this site at all costs.

Don't expect to go here with any kind of logic or reason with intentions of discussing topics related to $#*! posts. Dubbed a "democratic" community of voting. Bull. If you make any kind of comment that doesn't tow the line of Trump Hate, or hate in general, you will be blocked, muted, and even warned of abuse. Seriously?
Maybe admins are communist dictators shutting down free speech that triggers them?

There are some really cool and interesting things people are doing and sharing on this website, but you have to dig through mountains of recycled meme macros, re-posts galore, arbitrary "community" norms like "cat tax" and "no selfies", and inconsistent moderator actions.

The anonymous upvote/downvote mechanism allows for rampant abuse, especially since there is little consequence for downvoting another member's submission. The scale of abuse aimed at well intentioned but non-conforming viewpoints is staggering. 140 characters seems to be inadequate space to articulate and engage in meaningful discussion over some very controversial but tolerated political posts, especially.

Fun site, with mostly original content. Better than others of the sort.
