imgur should shoot big and host videos. Let people upload videos without an account, just like images. Fuck YouTube and its toxic comments. imgur's comment system and quality of comments are way better.
- binaryjohn 13y agoI believe that is the thinking behind vidd.me
- xpop2027 13y agoI didn't even think of this possible vertical for imgur.. great observation.
- svas 13y agoIf imgur approaches Youtube's scale won't the comments on imgur also become toxic? This still appears to be an unsolved issue (although, one could argue whether it is really an "issue"). Google's G+ approach (barring anonymous comments, etc) does not appear to have addressed the core concern.
- scrollaway 13y agoThe site Sir_Cmpn linked above (https://mediacru.sh https://mediacru.sh) apparently allows video uploads.
- perlpimp 13y agoi have been getting tired of all interface complications on youtube, I think this would be a welcome place for interesting and funny videos - old you tube style. number of things I have too look at and click to get to my channels is slowly growing which is pita. Although I tried using imgur a few times, I could not upload images a number of times, subjectively I don't know how they get that much money for such service... bubble is it?
