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
Centralization sucks. I know a lot of people who are currently dropping BlueSky and migrating back to Twitter because it was just too much of a loss for them unfortunately.
Edit:
Can't be bothered responding to each post individually so I'll put this here.
First off. Mastadon isn't that great of an experience. There's a reason it's not even at half the amount of users it started with. The devs don't listen to feedback and at the current time attempting to get the average person on there is a struggle.
Second off. There are people who use twitter for professional purposes. There's also a lot of companies that refuse to drop the platform which means people collaborating or coordinating with them end up using it for that purpose too. A lot of people and groups with large followings still find moving off the platform too risky. I'm not among those groups but you're being a bit ignorant if you think they don't exist or that they don't matter.
Mastadon is a thing. It's wild people choose between two closed networks.
You can choose not to use Twitter without living like a hermit though. In general, this comic sucks as a response.
This comic just underscores that this person doesnt really understand what they posted, I think ironically they posted it to look intellegent.
