Nope! It's an image host, not a social media platform, which in my opinion is the best thing about it.

Asking the important questions. I need the shitposting, not just the image hosting.

Didn't know that! I use an always-on VPN and I've never had issues with Catbox (but imgur blocks me), for what it's worth.

I just loaded it through a Comcast connection, so it’s definitely not an IP block or route issue. I don’t use Comcast’s dns though and I’m completely unwilling to do so even for test purposes so you could still be right.

Interesting, I am using the voyager mobile app. Does that mean the functionality is there but the PieFed frontend hasn't integrated it?

It doesn't matter, it's a clone with same functionality. There are users below uploading the same way I did and it uploads on their instance (piefed).

Realistically it's just your front end lacking image upload function, but there is back-end for it.
