I'm at a shelter, and we're dealing with these fuckers right now. Kill me.

Don't forget to put all your clothes, bags, and other belongings in the freezer for a week when you come home.

I sheltered two people during the storm surge last year and I think they brought in bed bugs, though I didn't wait long enough to properly confirm other than the itching and bite marks. In other words, the floor still has "bubble marks" from when the varnish started cooking during my week-long extermination craze.

Edit: Image from the glorious happening. Heater was usually placed on a box to keep it elevated. I tried to keep the room above 70°C.

Badass photo! But isn't Discord bad to hosting images?

[-] ekky@sopuli.xyz 1 points 3 days ago

Thank you, and it absolutely is, but I'm lazy and haven't yet found a proper solution for hosting images.

I sometimes host smaller images like the above on Catbox, but Imgur, Catbox, and other similar sites feel just as clunky and unfit as Discord. At least to me.

Have you tried https://postimages.org/? There's also some other website that I forgot the name of.

[-] ekky@sopuli.xyz 3 points 3 days ago

Hmmm, seems much the same as catbox, except that you need a click more to get the image link but gives you more options in return.

What I'm really interested in would be a (preferably) self hosted solution which allows one to share either single images or albums with visible (but non-obscuring) labels, and where one can easily flip through images in an album. Also needs batch upload (can be by FTP, the method doesn't matter much). I've tried Pixelfed half a year ago, and while I really wanted to like it, it didn't really have proper albums and labels at the time.

Hosts like Postimages and Catbox are fine, I guess, much like Discord is "fine, I guess", but I don't want to spam the host by uploading an image 50 times for 50 different posts, and no way that I'm gonna check all previously uploaded images whether I've already uploaded the one I need.

I somehow remember that it didn't fit last I tried it, but playing around with the demo, it feels like it's fills all the holes.

Thank you, I'll try setting it up and see how it goes.

Nice! Hope it works out. For sharing publicly, you might look at something like Immich Public Proxy, if it seems like you need it.
