What is Flickr?

Presently, SmugMug and Flickr are essential platforms for photographers aiming to protect, display, and profit from their work. Whether one is a casual smartphone user or an experienced professional in portrait photography, we provide them with crucial tools that enhance their skills, broaden their audience, and boost their income potential. Our goal is to make it easier for individuals to share their photographs with those who matter most in their lives. Some users may choose to maintain a blog that chronicles the moments they capture on their mobile devices, while others may want to showcase their top images or videos to achieve recognition online. Moreover, some prefer to privately share treasured pictures of their children with distant family members. Flickr accommodates all these desires and beyond! To facilitate this, we ensure that users can upload and download photos and videos through various channels, including web platforms, mobile devices, personal computers, and any software they opt to use for managing their visual content. This adaptability allows us to meet the varied needs of our diverse user base while fostering a vibrant community of photography enthusiasts.

    Probably still the best but going downhill...

    Date: Jan 21 2023
    Summary

    Still a very engaging site once you have "met" other genuine photo photographers and appreciative viewers – though these are declining in response to changes made over the last 5 years.

    Positive

    Wide international membership; significant (but declining) proportion of photographers vs. just viewers; organisation of photos into subject-interest groups, set up and controlled by members; inclusive of NSFW photos; availability of stats on viewing of your photos (but recently become unreliable); still some community spirit; generally helpful and responsive admins.

    Negative

    Slow and fluctuating loading of pages, especially "notifications"; shift towards it becoming a photo storage rather than exhibition / discussion site; poor layouts requiring scrolling through almost full-size images rather than quickly-loading thumbnail pages; bizarre decision to charge contributing photographers rather than "consumer" viewing members with no on-site reward for successful / popular images; resulting from this, a growing commercialisation and use by professional glamour / porn photographers to market their work elsewhere rather than by amateur enthusiasts who would be delighted with small rewards by the site to recognise their work. (I understand this shift in business model is based on advertising / marketing but it is a big negative from the site experience point of view)
