My favorite is the people who've said, on camera, 'Where was Obama on 9/11? Why wasn't he in the White House doing anything?'

Modern US conservatives are a special breed of stubborn stupidity.

As a non American, we got that brand of stupid exported into our country too. Confidently wrong idiots running around setting fires everywhere.

How do you get rid of these things?

We send them over to you. It's starting to work! Unfortunately they reproduce rapidly. It's a losing battle.

This page is disgustingly complicated and has an uncomfortable amount of motion on it. Could you share less nauseating links in the future?

Recently I had a request to post a gif somewhere, and gifhy was the only thing that I knew was mostly legit. I tried directly uploading, but it didn't want to work.

Is there a better place, you'd recommend, to direct people to for gif uploads?

That's a difficult question honestly, as you'd want the host to be able to fund itself in a way that's tax efficient or otherwise incentivized (like not showing ads or using trackers in exchange for donations).

A solution popular in recent times on Lemmy is https://catbox.moe/ and I have probably been using it before Lemmy was even created, as it is referenced by the Pomf Clones and File Hosting Comparisons document which was created in 2018.

At the very least, https://imgur.com/ has a less crowded interface and surely makes enough money from ads and trackers to be sustainable in the medium term.
