I hate imgur. Feels like they load every script available on the web. Brings back that good time feel of the dialup days.

Why are you all not using NoScript ?
I do, but you need some of the scripts for their site to work, and then it dumps a shit ton of pictures I'm not interested in seeing. I just want to upload a pic to put on a forum. If I want to browse photos, I'll search the web for photos.

I use postimage.org It has fewer features than imgur, but also fewer hassles.

That seems to be the case with so many websites now days, I can't stand it. I used to use noscript but it makes browsing the internet super tedius as you have to figure out which of the 50+ script domains you have to allow so that the site even loads. For every single website you visit. Would be nice if noscript worked kind of like an antivirus where it got updated definitions but worked in reverse where it would unblock specific scripts that are ok by default.

Ublock Origin works really well on Imgur FYI. I get bored a lot when doing network installs & will browse for an hour or two...the number of blocked elements easily gets into the tens of thousands, it's flat-out ridiculous. I don't mind an ad here & there, but that site turns my laptop's processor into mush if I don't use an adblocker on it.
