Is there any good alternative to imgur for uploading screenshots?
I mainly use imgur to upload screenshots using sharex, would appreciate being pointed in the direction of any alternative.

We should really try to stick to federated FOSS choices, so that we don't have a future nightmare on our hands.
What's there to federate about image cdn? If you don't want to use 3rd party service just self host. You just have to make compromises either way.
We actually feature a federated image hosting service on lemmy, there isn't much to image hosting to federate, you're right, but we shouldn't rely on imgur or discord or anything centralized wherever possible to avoid centralization of control over our media.
What's really the difference between a federated Lemmy instance for hosting vs a 3rd party anyways?
If another Lemmy instance goes down, all the content on it is gone anyways. Federated != Mirrored. Just because you can browse the content doesn't mean it's safe from going away at the whims of one person
