Recently, techmeme had this headline.

"Mariella Moon / Engadget:
Imgur plans to delete “old, unused, and inactive content” that's not tied to a user account, starting on May 15, potentially erasing years of internet history — For years, Imgur has made sharing photos and GIFs on the internet as easy as uploading a file — you don't even need an account to use it."

The changes in its Terms of Service will take effect on May 15th."
There's been other press coverage at https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2023/04/hosting-site-imgur-will-remove-explicit-and-anonymous-content-next-month/.
Will be interesting to see how this plays out.
