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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. 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.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
  6. Absolutely no NSFL content.
  7. Be nice. Don't take anything personally. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements & arguments to private messages.
  8. No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

That's the upper level. On the lower level you use a remote control, and there's tons of input lag.

"@" and "." need to be accessed by a separate punctuation page.

Also the keys sometimes get stuck, and the keyboard closes without saving your input when you press up in the top row.

Oh wait, that's just Android TV. :(

and its not the fancy bluetooth one on new TVs where you can point it anywhere, but good old infrared, aiming and all. All the while the batteries are half dead/not slotted correctly so you have to open it up and roll it around a bit to hit the g-spot so it works.

Also the passwords are in a key manager and are 30 random characters. You have to look at your phone and manually enter them one character at a time via the remote.

And the onscreen keyboard is in reverse alphabetic order

No, it is just endlessly looking up and trying to get a movie to play on Paramount+
