    That’s been the case for years now. It’s no longer an image hosting site, it’s an image-based social media site.

      All of their marketing says image hosting. Users don’t even understand their own walled garden.

      Imgur now defaults to private images, but those didn’t exist at a time, and when they introduced them they defaulted to public.
