> Imgur, which now won't even let you upload images on mobile web
They hide the upload from the mobile views but if you go directly to https://imgur.com/upload you can upload from there even on mobile.
I agree that Imgur has become quite terrible though, and I think it’s a consequence of offering the service for free as they do. They have a lot of users and serve a lot of traffic, and they need to cover their bills and make a living somehow.
I hope to see your paid service thrive and be able to offer a good service and user experience to those of us who are willing to pay. I think your service has a good chance of being able to succeed.
