For those that enjoy photography and share your work - what platform do you host your work on, and why? What are the key factors for picking where you host/share?

(Reason: I'm working on https://exposera.com, as a new platform to share photos and stories, to solve some of the pain points that I've faced with other platforms.)

@adam_caudill https://pixel.infosec.exchange/imclaren - mainly because it’s run by @jerry , it’s a simple way to share photos that also appear on my personal website (via simple rss/javascript hackery), and it feels minimally performative. It’s just posting and sharing photos that I like, and liking photos that I like.

@adam_caudill @jerry fwiw I think that a reasonable quality ios app to upload and view photos, and a robust export mechanism that allows users to download their original photos, are also important.

@imclaren Thanks, much appreciated! You mentioned something that I had missed - RSS feeds, which I'm adding now. Making it easy to use the data elsewhere is an important use case.

@adam_caudill tough. I have a PixelFed account that‘s not used too much, I have a paid SmugMug account that I use mostly for backups and run a small photo site on but I‘m souring on it because getting a hotlink on mobile is intentionally difficult. Recently I‘ve been enjoying @adam‘s some.pics a lot and I hope it will become even more powerful once Neato becomes a real thing.
