I've read that uploading all your images/gifs/videos to lemmy will cause big server costs down the line.

I wanted to do my part in keeping the costs low so which site or app or whatever do people recommend to upload your media to for linking in posts? I've tried imgur and I'm not really a fan

After photobucket crapped the bed and broke hundreds of my links I decided to roll my own.

So I have a little corner of my website where I can upload pics. There's a dinky shell script to generate indices, thumbnails, pasteable links for BB, reddit, markdown, etc. If this one blows up it's my fault.

That's really cool. Are they photos from a camera's sd card? Or do you pop them over from your phone?
