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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. 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.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If a post is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
  6. Be nice. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements to private messages.
  7. No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

I'm more concerned about the "barn out"

It's "barn", not "burn"

[–] aaaa@piefed.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

But why did you leave the subreddit and usernames censored

[–] xia@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago

Thanks for sharing. I appreciate the decensoring effort. Hang in there.

They also censored the names of the pseudonyms on a public website.

I really do get why it's being called out, its silly and annoying.

8/10 of the top comments in my client are complaining about this, though.

It's easy for me to ignore and move on from the censored text, but its harder to ignore the comments when they are taking up so much space.

Again, I get why, and I understand that each commenter probably didn't see eachothers comments at the time of posting. And again, I get that this censoring is ridiculous.

I am not really offering a solution, and I'm not sure that people should stop calling it out but... theres got to be a better way? Maybe such posts should just be banned? Deleted by mods? If it is so frustrating for so many people.

It’s just engagement bait at this point
