I\'m curious, why the comment, \"I know the image galleries will probably break someday when Flickr sunsets.\" when you have no issues using Gist? I\'m genuinely interested in your take since I struggle with the \"cloud\" vs. owning my own data. I\'d prefer to have all my content self-hosted, but see the appeal of using services like Gist, Flickr, etc. ## ttscoff — [Jan 14, 2013 01:30 pm](https://my.remarkbox.com/53888aff-4208-11e9-9d31-040140774501/a-jekyll-flickr-gallery-plugin-test-brettterpstra-com#53888b02-4208-11e9-9d31-040140774501) Oh, I have the same concerns there, but they\'re really non-concerns. Just like my Flickr images, I keep all of my gists as text files locally as well and can drop in a new system with a simple search and replace. The only reason galleries are different is that I don\'t store my photos as collections locally, so the organization would be lost. --- **Source:** [https://my.remarkbox.com/53888b01-4208-11e9-9d31-040140774501](https://my.remarkbox.com/53888b01-4208-11e9-9d31-040140774501) **Snapshot:** 2026-05-06T23:34:02Z **Generator:** Remarkbox `763cacb`
