I have been going back some times to flickr and dropped insta, since it’s a crap place these days (like most of the big socials)
replyThe elegance of flickr is just nice and browsing is fun.
I wonder if there are more sites like it.
+1 on Flickr being the best acquisition and product Yahoo! had.
replyI still have my account and old photos there. And because I licensed most of them as CC, a couple of them landed on Wikipedia because of that - felt nice.

replyas someone who goes down many rabbit holes on wikipedia, i appreciate this comment and all of those CC photos
When I was doing more graphics-rich presentations, the CC photo resource on Flickr was really useful. (In case someone asks, I usually wasn't being paid directly for giving presentations so I convinced myself I could feel comfortable using CC content in general even with strings like non-commercial attached.)
replyI also loved Flickr, and Pipes was a really cool technology too.
replyIt’s cool that they used PHP, I always thought it was RoR platform.
