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.

I miss the golden days of social sharing. I used to be super active on 500px. I can even say that my desire to be at the top improved my hobby. Once they aggressively started monetizing, the site lost its mojo—too many bots, mutual boosting, etc.

It's great to hear that people are heading to Flickr. So many nostalgic memories. I will create an account today.
