Default What photo sharing site?

Always used photobucket but its now stupidly slow and full of adverts so looking for somewhere new to share them.

Tried flickr but sharing a single image seems to be a ball ache, with photobucket it just gave you a link to copy and paste.

What are folks using?

If you want something for free - dropbox and syncplicity are worth a look.

If you dont mind paying, or if you value security and privacy for your hosting - Spideroak and Tresorit are two really good services.

I use Flickr, for me it seems pretty straight forward to share photos especially from their phone app. Plus you get 1TB of free storage and all photos stored at full resolution.

Google photos is unlimited (for a small reduction in filesize/quality) and easy to share.

There's literally hundreds of options for this, so it's a balancing act on what works best for you across the devices you use, for me I find a combination of Google photos and MS onedrive works best with my android phone and Windows 10.
