Fuck photobucket and the absolute wasteland they have left in countless forum posts in every corner of the internet. Sooooo much valuable information just fucking gone because they got greedy and refused to change with the times.
It sucks but you can't really expect a service to host images until the end of time for free.
They could have found a way if they had given a shit. Give the forums the option to take over hosting, or transfer them to an internet archive. Hell I bet there are enough data hoarders that would have been delighted to help ensure that data remained accessible without costing photobucket a dime.
This is Lemmy, and if Lemmy has taught me anything from the constant repetitive YouTube posts... Then the answer is unironically they absolutely expect that.
