Flickr Reviews

Although this article is from 2018, it is pertinent for today, in May 2021, because Flickr just deleted my account and all its content for violations of user terms, in supposedly posting others photos, WITHOUT EVER WARNING ME BEFOREHAND. I hardly did and the ones that were, were not hidden but labeled as such under the notations "webfinds" and "mods". They have no phone number to talk to a live person and I have been waiting for a return e-mail
In short, Flickr SUCKS!!!

Flickr.com are scammers don't buy pro or even gift this pro to anyone.

just changing your password is like one of the 7 tasks of Hercules.It feels Victorian its so far behind the rest now.So No thanks.

Customer Service Ignoring Me
I reached out to Flickr regarding someone who posted (without permission) photos they took of me with my full name on them. They stated they were not going to remove the photos or my name. I followed up asking why they could not remove them so that I could decide how to proceed next and they never responded. I emailed them a couple more times and even emailed them from another email address just in case something had gone awry, and still they never responded... This is not okay and certainly is not indicative of their claim on their site: "We are a customer support team delivering the best 1-1 care in the business." Clearly a good customer support team doesn't ignore someone reaching out for help and clarity.

And here I am again! yet again have I been targeted and told that my pictures break community guidelines, This time they have restricted my account for an auto upload feature that takes my pictures from my desktop to a private folder that they state no one else can see. However I am breaking rules because I never moderated those private folders that only i am able to see not the community. When it took me ages to finally work out how to stop this happening and asking for my restriction to be lifted they have only placed previously adult rated pictures into a safe category themselves and accusing me of doing that. There is zero complaints procedure and very little communication regarding this, they do not even respond to what you write. The service is awful and very stressful I actually feel like I am being targeted. this goes against my own rights, they have changed the rating on the pictures, they have invaded my own privacy by viewing my private back up camera roll and restricted me on that. Service is very poor, this literally is the 3rd time this has happened to me, i am so careful with rating my pictures and they just keep finding ways to restrict my content.

A very handy place to show your images! Flickr is built around organizational flexibility (Galleries, Collections and Albums with levels), allows really easy keywording, and a healthy community for social feedback, competitions etc (Groups). Flickr offers simple uploading with camera and GPS info and more and then provides Organizer tools for further organizational work. Much has changed over the years and Flickr remains a solid photography showcase site for pros and infrequent users alike.
The crowds may still be infatuated with Instagram, but Flickr is FAR more useful.

Horrible Horrible. We have had Flickr for years. I did a lot of work on our photos,with history and information and then when they switched something happened. Hubby thought that he might have discontinued. But, found that July 20 we had a payment taken out of our checking. And now, they removed our account and no way to get our photos or account back.
One employee responded said it's been six months, wouldn't have been yet. Horrible horrible. Can't even reach them on the phone you have to email them.
Find another service to have your photos in an album.

FLICKR in 3 points:
1) Slow
2) stupid waiting time of 5 s (Waste of time)
3) dumb design, complicated saving, stupid search filter, pure commerce
FLICKR in 3 Punkten:
1) Langsam
2) dumme Wartezeit von 5 s (Zeitverschendung)
3) schwachsinniges Design, umständliches speichern, dummer Suchfilter, reiner kommerz

The site is really entertaining to roam about to see other people`s photos. Lots of content from all over the world helping you to enjoy the numerous places.

I've used Flickr as a portfolio site for a long, long time, since it's inception, as a portfolio for my design. I think I've lost countless opportunities over the years using it for this purpose because it's ugly as sin. Employers and recruitment agents also know it's a lazy option. But more recently, flickr has sold out and betrayed the loyalty of their users. When you start sticking ads in my portfolio, that's where I draw the line. You could put it in my personal feed, the feed that only I see, but when prospective employers have to look at cheapass targeted banner ads in-between my work they're scrolling through, it's really time to move to a portfolio site I can trust. They've screwed their users for a quick buck. Bye bye flickr.

By means of and huge, I go to your website. I 'm enchanted along with your remarkable help, so thanks over again.

The website is extremely useful. Like following their blog and found there lots of great articles.
