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.

MODERATORS
Tiktok still seems to have the best short/mid-form philosophy and history/political content - excluding the ones that moved to Instagram or something. Some of the creators on there are legit amazing, based on the videos they make.
I'm always blown away by how good their algorithm is, too. It's way better than any other site, by like a mile. The only thing that keeps me from using it more is how long the videos I get recommended are. They're usually too mind-blowing and I can't just start another video right away without a minute to process it or look it up in more detail elsewhere.
That said, the things my friends send me are absolutely not. It's insane how they never get anything remotely interesting - it's all bottom-tier trashy stuff on their feed. You def reap what you see on there
