Just avoid using their services. The more people refuse to participate the

It can be used directly from the cmdline if desired with pastebinit.

If you install and run Apache on Debian you can simply provide a URI to an
image file on your own Debian PC.

I am sory but I do not like Apache on my system behind a VPN.
I am running nginx, and I like to keep it that way. Do you think an
extra apache server won't hurt in this set-up?

I have been doing an apache2 server here for quite a few years, 14 or so. 
The link you see in my sig is this machine, being accessed by a port 
forward in my router. The router of course is running a dd-wrt reflash. 
On my 10 megabaud down ADSL cable modem, its a bit slow to load on your 
end, but it otherwise Just Works(TM).

You don't need Apache if you already have nginx installed. (nginx is what I
would use if I needed a web server.)

Either way, that doesn't work too well if you're behind a NAT router 
and/or have a dynamic IP address.  At the very least you have to open a 
port, and you may have to run dynamic DNS.

It's far easier to use something like filemail.com - uploads a file, 
then emails a link to it, and free for most uses.

I am behind a NAT router, with that port forwarded to this machine.

And while I am getting my internet address from dhcp asking my provider, 
I found that if you clone the original routers MAC into the replacement, 
my namecheap registered address is a fixed address, so I don't have to 
putz with or pay for that service at namecheap.  Whats not to like, it 
Just Works(TM).

What amazed me was that google found me at that oddball port numnber, 
less than 4 hours after I went live with it at least 5 years ago.

Learn how to use words to describe what you are experiencing.  It is a
valuable skill.  It will serve you well in all the remaining years of
your life.

Begin with simple declarative sentences giving a basic background, so
that people know how to reproduce your setup.

"I am using Debian version ___ on the ___ platform.  I use the ___
desktop environment."

Follow that up with a basic description of the problem you are
having.

"I'm using software package ___ version ___.  When I try to ___ I see ___."

DO NOT try to recall details from memory.  Actually GO THROUGH THE STEPS
THAT MAKE THE PROBLEM HAPPEN and write down what you are doing and seeing
as it happens.

Click or type a thing.  Write a sentence saying what you clicked/typed.

Look at the screen.  Write a sentence describing what you see on the
screen.

If there are error messages or other surprising output, paste them
verbatim, directly from your terminal into your email.

If you can't paste the error because it appears in a stupid GUI popup
window instead of a terminal, then transcribe it character by
character into the email.

Repeat until the problem has been clearly described to someone with
absolutely no background knowledge of the software you're using.

Finally, if you need to post an image, put it on your private web server.
You know, whichever one holds your home page with your selfies and your
pictures of your goldfish.
