It's very hard to spot these guys, I'm glad I managed to catch it and share it with you all.

Catbox should honestly really be avoided. It's blocked for such a huge range of users unless they use either a non-default DNS or a VPN (depending on which specific block they're behind).
This includes all users in Australia, the UK, and Ireland. American customers of Comcast, Verizon, and Spectrum and Canadian customers of Rogers. And any user who has their DNS set to the popular alternate DNS of Quad 9.
If uploading photographs in particular, it also does not remove EXIF or other metadata, which may expose GPS location or other potentially sensitive information to everyone.
Thanks for bringing that to my attention, I was unaware. I've seen it recommended elsewhere so was rotating it into the parent comment, one I make from time to time as Beehaw's settings for pictrs can trip folks up occasionally.
Yeah it's unfortunate because it's a useful site. You can see more detailed explanations on their FAQ page. Most of the reasons for its blocking are pretty dumb, but that doesn't matter much to the people who try to click a link and have it not work.
