Basically dropbox has removed the last reason for me to use themImportant changes to the Dropbox public folder
Dropbox accounts created after October 4, 2012 won't have a Public folder. If you'd like to quickly share files you can use a shared link. Shared links work even if the person you're sharing with doesn't have a Dropbox account.
Dropbox Basic (free) users
As of March 15, 2017 the Public folder in your Dropbox account has been converted into a standard folder. By default this folder is private to your account. This transition will occur automatically.
Here's what you need to know:
All of the files in your Public folder will remain safe, but public links to those files will stop working
If someone visits a link to a file in your Public folder, they'll see an error page
To see a list of your public links, visit the Public folder—any file in this folder will have previously had a public link associated with it
Dropbox can't convert existing public links into Dropbox shared links
If you'd like to re-share any of the files in your Public folder, please use a shared folder or shared link

You've mistaken my comment for a defense of Dropbox. Nonetheless Dropbox doesn't force itself into Windows, and company behind is isn't a conglomerate with a history of sketchy anti-privacy practices.

Use ShareX with some image uploader, I use dropbox because of the mentioned video capabilities.

Well, even if you can change the link now dropbox has made a business decision to remove that functionality, so don't be surprised if they patch out hot linking

Literally nothing that you've described in this thread has actually happened.
Re: Use Dropbox for hosting images? Read this:
Yes Int, the copy public link option on the context menu is still there and links using the old public links still work, don't they... retard.
Like I said above, just because there's currently a back door work around doesn't mean you'll still be able to hot link in a few months, they can very easily disable that.
