A place to share screenshots of Microblog posts, whether from Mastodon, tumblr, ~~Twitter~~ X, KBin, Threads or elsewhere.
Created as an evolution of White People Twitter and other tweet-capture subreddits.
RULES:
- Your post must be a screen capture of a microblog-type post that includes the UI of the site it came from, preferably also including the avatar and username of the original poster. Including relevant comments made to the original post is encouraged.
- Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
- You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
- Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
- Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
- Absolutely no NSFL content.
- Be nice. Don't take anything personally. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements & arguments to private messages.
- No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

I don’t have control over a lot of things with my work laptop, since it’s owned/controlled by the company. However, if it doesn’t require an install, then I’ll try that when I get back on Monday. We use Chromebooks (ugh), but any way I could get around ads would be a blessing. Thank you for the suggestion, I’m open to any ad-blocking options I could use.
This page has some hints.
Hmmm 🤔 All Chromebooks use Chrome as a web browser, right? Can't you just add an adblocker extension?
After a small web search, this seems to be the recommended solution:

There's also https://pie.yt/ which lets you watch yt video adfree straight from the browser. It looks OK to me, no suspicious 3rd-party scripts/requests.
