A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Is Flickr Still Useful? (alien.top)

I would like to post photos on a site that is accessible to others but that is A) somewhat respectful of personal information (i.e. nothing owned by Facebook); and B) is not too silly looking (Imgur). Is there any good option, or is Flickr still worthwhile? I don't mind if the site charges a reasonable fee. Thank you.

Yeah, I think people who want to show still photography are heading back to flickr for the most part. IG really only wants you to post video clips now, facebook is kind of a wasteland except for friends/family, no idea what is up with imgur these days, 500px is only bots. Flickr has a decent UI, not much spam, doesn't look dumb, and you can host whatever you want at high resolution, and even get some minor amount of exposure.
