Source on the image? Seems to be a snippet of a longer article.

EDIT: looking up the text of the image gives me https://inshorts.com/m/en/news/kerala-man-loses-%E2%82%B940000-as-video-call-from-friend-turns-out-to-be-deepfake-1689663557129, which is just the snipped text, but points at

as the source. I get images get more engagement than links, but it's important to have the source handy.

I was so hoping the crappy "hey, a text thing I want to share, let me take a fucking attributionless accessibility-poisoning screenshot and upload it like a psychopath instead of just copy/pasting the link to the text or the text itself like a decent human being" routine would die with Reddit. We should be better than that here.

I even get why, images inherently get more eyes on them than articles through links, but the least we can do is include the source in the post body.
