Hi all, is there a service that lets you share photos with others that is at least a little privacy-respecting? Think something like Imgur, but more open and less privacy invasive.
I’m not looking for something like Pixelfed (which is great if you want an Fediverse Instagram alternative!), nor am I looking for something like Immich (photo backup that I already self-host on my local network!), I’m looking for a public service where I can upload images that can be shared via a URL.
Ideally, I should have some amount of organisation (at the very least the creation of albums), have support for larger files produced by my mirrorless camera (nothing crazy, images are 6000x4000px and are usually several MBs each), and not hosted in the U.S., China, or similar
Self-hosted suggestions are okay too, but public services are ideal
You may also be interested in what I do to host my huge 360° photos and videos: I store them in a GitHub repo with Github Pages enabled. Github web pages are CORS-enabled, so you can share images to your heart’s content, and the limit is 100MB per file.
My repo is here, and the resulting page to view the 360 content in it is accessible here.
No privacy though. Github is Microsoft. But you can encrypt the files - and I assume if you want every Tom, Dick and Harry to be able to view one of them, privacy isn’t really necessary.
