placeholder.com discontinued

Open mbrodala opened this issue 2 years ago • 5 comments

The known placeholder.com image service has been bought and replaced by pointless content:

As per https://www.reddit.com/r/web_design/comments/10lqgja/placeholdercom_is_no_more/ there are a few alternatives, among them https://dummyimage.com and https://placehold.co where the latter seems to be a drop-in replacement.

Notice that the actual service at https://via.placeholder.com/ apparently still works, e.g. https://via.placeholder.com/100x100.png

Still it is questionable how long this is kept alive given that the main site has a completely different purpose now.

Please find your information in the Readme https://github.com/IchHabRecht/filefill#image-builder

Sure, that's what the imagebuilder resource is for. This one uses the known GifBuilder internally:
