Gyazo is the worst screenshot uploader in human history. At best, it’s inconvenient, slow, and missing features: at worst, it’s a bandwidth-draining malware risk for everyone who views your images. There is absolutely no reason to use it unless you’re too lazy to spend 5 minutes installing another program.

• Uploading to Gyazo is extremely slow compared to most popular hosts.
• Every Gyazo page is bloated and slow to load: a 500KB file comes with 3MB of garbage.¹
• Each page also loads over 20MB in ads², choking your browser and risking malware infection.
• Your files aren’t saved to your PC for later, and even if you make an account, you can only see part of your history unless you pay up.
• Every time you use Gyazo, you advertise the service and spread bad software.

The alternative: ShareX

ShareX is fast, flexible, and can upload to almost any file host. It’s just as powerful as Gyazo out-of-the-box, but it also has a lot of features that Gyazo doesn’t:

• Record high-quality video in any format or framerate, with sound.
• Quickly edit and annotate screenshots without opening another program.
• More than screenshots: you can upload any file type to Google Drive, Dropbox, MEGA, etc.
• Configurable keyboard combinations for any of the above
• Look, just fucking read the features, it’s really good

If you still absolutely refuse to switch from Gyazo (perhaps because it’s holding your images hostage?), at least link people directly to your images.³ You’ll still have to deal with Gyazo’s slow servers and missing features, but at least your laziness will inconvenience other people slightly less.
