OP example is 404.
@dirkf This video still exists, but gives the same error with youtube-dl 2021.12.17: https://imgur.com/a/j1ltixx
Indeed:
$ ./youtube-dl-20230718 'https://imgur.com/a/j1ltixx'

This is actually, or at least obscured by, #25351, where the album API URL in the extractor is no longer valid:
data = self._download_json(
+ 'https://api.imgur.com/post/v1/albums/%s?client_id=%s&include=media,account' % (client_id, gallery_id),
+ gallery_id, fatal=False)
- 'https://imgur.com/gallery/%s.json' % gallery_id,
- gallery_id)['data']['image']
The new replacement API URL works in the browser but gives 401 or 429 in yt-dl, despite apparently the same headers.
Ah, let's try this instead!
data = self._download_json(
+ 'https://api.imgur.com/post/v1/albums/%s?client_id=%s&include=media,account' % (gallery_id, client_id),
+ gallery_id, fatal=False)
- 'https://imgur.com/gallery/%s.json' % gallery_id,
- gallery_id)['data']['image']
Then, hurrah!

Description
Certain imgur URLs give a 404 error when trying to download them, while they work in Firefox. They are generally URLs beginning with https://imgur.com/a/ , referring to a single video. The example video is NSFW.
