I am dealing with a house full of “mid-century modern” furniture. I would like to post photos on the appropriate subreddit. It has been years since I last did such a thing.

Are there any free image-hosting sites left?

If you’re posting to reddit you can upload directly to reddit. Or use imgur.

We I am doing something wrong. I open “submit a new text post.” I drag the image into the window. The image opens in a new tab on my browser. Of course the key word might be “text.”

Yep, submit a new link does it. Thanks.
