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 a post is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
- Be nice. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements to private messages.
- No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

I can kinda vibe with that. Worst I've ever seen was installation instructions posted in a Discord server.
Jokes on you all the good software you've never heard of has obscure and hard to find instructions for a reason.
They also have crazy long config files. All but like two lines in the file will be the same for everyone.
Except the program also is ignoring half the config file and is instead using hardcoded values.
Oh and there are six different config files all in different directories. Why? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
That's the worst you've ever seen? lol
i quit my CS degree 2 years in because these sorts of people are the absolute worst at empathizing with a problem and giving a clear and fair answer. the attitude is usually that if you're asking at all, you didn't try hard enough to figure it out yourself. how dare you make me do my job
It's an open source developer's job to teach you how to run a script?
Didn’t it sound like they were talking about their professors?
If you give normies a solution they will bother you all the time. If you teach normies how to nerd they will leave you the fuck alone.
That implies people bother to teach them, which isn't the case.
No they won't. They'll remember nothing other that the fact you know what they don't, and bother you about everything.
I understand where your coming from but this example is awful because it's literally git clone, pip install and you're good to go.
Ah yes, the open source dev "job" with it's very lucrative paycheck of $0 lmfao
Sure that's why you quit.
/r/thathappened.
