The posted changes when the buyout occurred really left a bad taste in my mouth and made we realize that we need a open keybase type ID thing and decentralized groups. Flickr was a gem for groups that would be censored with the growing fcbook ways.. and smughub acquisition seemed to be set to destroy those small communities with new upcoming rules.. now it seems they are choosing to be more nude/porn friendly.. kudos. So what happens if you are a pro user for 3 months and part of several nude communities and then you cancel your pro / paying for it? Any nude photos you've uploaded become history? If I remember correctly flicker actually had a good export option, so that's a plus. There are some other things you all could do to make it more attractive.. tip jars seem to the way of the currents. mixin a little patreon like functionality with some penthouse promos and such I guess. I wonder if there could be a way to keep contacts/groups if you leave flikr - like an @flickerrefugees address on a matrix server ID kind of thing. People are tired of creating connections to have them destroyed from random and changing winds of (often unequal) moderation policies - so give them a place to meet and share that does not also try to silo and keep from connecting even when the meeting place is cancelled. - Then I think you can get your $7 / month no problem.
