I've never heard anything although it's never occurred to me that it was a serious issue. I can't imagine they are getting that much traffic from my posts at Voat. I could just link the original posts but the images won't show up in the thumbnail (I've been told people prefer to click the (+) icon instead of clicking the title).

And if the blog goes down or rearranges its content storage system, then the links are dead.

made a site that mirrors your uploaded pic/gifs to a handful of hosts and solves the "dead host" issue (sl.img, kek.gg, other) by always redirecting to a live link.

Thanks, I didn't know that. I try using Archive.is when I can but I've found it's not very reliable. More than a few people on Voat have also said they can't view links from that website.

I don't suppose 's site has a way to preserve Youtube videos? That would be pretty handy to have.

Nope, archiving videos is something I was looking into in terms of webm, etc. however, there are few free webm/gif/mp4 hosts and fewer that allow anon upload (without account). So the prospect of such a service surviving very long is dubious at best.

By creating Poal, you gave me the inspiration to build http://picinfinity.co

Luckily was here to help with the code.
