sign up to flickr
Yes, if you want your pix to be displayed temporarily. Flickr periodically changes the URL for download, so eventually all Flickr embeds end up as broken as any other shit pix host.

Interesting. Didn't know that or seem to have experienced that personally.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not happy with what Yahoo turned Flickr into -
but it's a free image host, that actually gives you a link to an uncompressed .jpg of your photo¹.Where have you heard that they change the URLs?
I have just checked posts I made on this fine forum 8 months ago, embedding pics hosted on flickr, they all show up just fine..
¯_(ツ)_/¯¹
I do agree that the dance you have to do to actually get to that fucking URL is ridiculous though.
