A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Is Flickr Still Useful? (alien.top)

I would like to post photos on a site that is accessible to others but that is A) somewhat respectful of personal information (i.e. nothing owned by Facebook); and B) is not too silly looking (Imgur). Is there any good option, or is Flickr still worthwhile? I don't mind if the site charges a reasonable fee. Thank you.

Flickr is a great platform to begin with and you can use the Flickr storage as a backend for your own website. It's not as fast as using an image CDN, but the speed difference is not that noticeable.

Take a look at Nanogallery: https://nanogallery2.nanostudio.org/. With some very basic PHP/HTML skills and understanding of JavaScript you can go a long way.
