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.

This is true for the obvious reason that a real computer with a big screen is just better, but it's also true for another reason: lots of vendors have been caught engaging in shady market segmentation tactics where they overcharge people on phones and/or using "apps," relative to the price offered to people on desktop browsers. It tends to be even worse for iPhone users than for Android ones, by the way.
I think the real reason a desktop (or laptop) screen is superior is really the ease with which you can open multiple browser tabs (and to a lesser extent, multiple profiles/private browsing mode) to compare prices, as well as the easy with which you can view them side-by-side instead of having to switch between different fullscreen views.
