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.

If they're just making a request, why not put it in an email instead of chatting with you?

Not really Instant Message necessary at all.

I do that, but I send the actual message right after, without waiting for a reply to "hi".

I do that with my friends out of habit sometimes

I've managed to (for better or worse) make myself fairly irreplaceable at my job and am in a rare position where I can refuse to use anything I choose and there's no-one who can make me.
Windows and Teams are top of my "Fuck you" list.

I feel for the people who don't have that luxury though.

Then why not just use email? Sounds like you just want an email...

I work in municipal government and had a enginee4ing consultant Teams me a comment about a developer being a bumbass while I was screen-sharing to a live public meeting that involved that developer.

Please give me the "hey"

I'm glad to never have worked in a workplace where instead of the email they used teams.
