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.

Kinda wish this had an actual timestamp instead of just "3d" like I know when this screenshot was taken...
That's intentional, and it's why ALL of these ridiculous social media companies do it this way.
Only the present matters. Why would you have anything to gain from seeing history? /s
That reminds me: we should demand Fediverse stuff display proper timestamps. Even now, your comment is showing as "41m [ago]" for me viewing it in Voyager, which is just being part of the problem for no good reason.
But then I have to know what time and date it currently is
I suppose there's no reason it couldn't show both, or let you toggle, or even provide a built-in screenshotting function that includes an absolute timestamp even while the normal UI displays relative time.
I wish that was mandatory for any social media post to include time and date information SOMEWHERE in the post.
You're welcome.

I would deem this a success. Good work.
Some time between the murder of Alex Pretti and three days before today. Which is a relatively narrow range, all things considered.
It was a month ago today. In normal times, that would indeed be a small range.
We are not living in normal times.
A month might as well be a year with how much awful shit is happening so frequently. Supposedly, some of the DHS Gestapo has been pulled out of Michigan. Has it made things better? Worse? No noticable change at all? Did they actually pull out, or are they just lying and saying they did? Who can say for sure? Certainly not anyone reading this tweet because IT LACKS A FUCKING TIMESTAMP!
