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 think it's a complaint from everyone but Gen z, who are just used to it.
I can’t fucking stand making more accounts just because companies want to collect data. The gen-z people I know can’t either.
Used to it ≠ Not complaining about it
Ah. Resignation is NOT acceptance.
Withdrawal in disgust is not the same as apathy.
As genz, can confirm
I think this is a common-sense complaint, mostly unrelated to generation.
I mean yeah we are used to it but it's still shitty. Are you not used to it?
I'm too poor to have this complaint, I guess. I have to do everything manually still
Gen z to me is just the boomers mark II.
For what reason? That doesn't make any sense.
I meet a lot of overentitled Gen z. They remind me of the boomers that I also meet a lot of. Of course neither group can see it.
This might surprise you, but people are people no matter what generation they were born in.
Boomers is a name for a specific reason.
So you agree.
