Any good blocklist will include rules that filter out the complete cancer that is imgur. I can't see your memes. Use something else, or just upload them to your instance.

I assumed you can't see the pictures because you're in the UK.

Nah, I've blocklisted them at the router level because of the nauseating amount of ads and trackers they employ.

The body of my post is suggesting this should be common practice for these reasons, and people should use something else

If you use mobile you can also install TrackerControl from F-Droid (not the playstore version, playstore version is tracker viewing only)

It creates an internal VPN so it can block blacklisted ad and tracker sites. It made browsing Imgur bearable.

A place where you can rant to your heart's content.

Rules :
  1. Follow all of Lemmy code of conduct.
  2. Be respectful to others, even if they're the subject of your rant. Realize that you can be angry at someone without denigrating them.
  3. Keep it on Topic. Memes about ranting are allowed for now, but will be banned if they start to become more prevalent than actual rants.
