I just found out my boss would scroll imgur directly. I only ever knew it as the image host of choice on reddit. Very rarely I’d click thru an imgur link to an album and then stay on the site to scroll a few more images, but that’s it.

Oh, they have their own memes, comics, famous users/posters, copypasta, etc, except it feels more like your stuck on r/all with a smaller userbase. Comments are, I believe still locked at 140 characters, so conversation is severely limited. It was fun - I was an Imgur user for several years before I realized that Reddit was really everything I wanted from Imgur. Literally haven’t gone back since I switched to Reddit about 10 years ago

Yeah, I only found out maybe last year that there's a whole community underneath it. Up until then I thought it was simply just an image hosting site.

The term “social media site” is used very loosely these days. Allow comments on anything? Congrats, you’re a social media site!
