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.

As an American, yea. We deserve that. I'm sorry. We've failed Ukraine and the world.

Yeah but you see Putin has some very special tapes of Trump so...

In the age of deep fakes noone cares, even if that is true

The cult wouldn't care if he admitted to it, post-leak, and the fascist ruling party would simply refuse to hold him accountable.

Does this post title contain zero-width characters or something? It slipped past my app's filters.

[–] PhilipTheBucket@ponder.cat 69 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I was setting a little trap for any AI response bots. I don't think that any exist, but I was curious. I apologize if it broke your filters, it was just a one-off experiment.

Do you have a way to check if it's still breaking filters? That wasn't the intent, since it's affecting normal users I've now edited to remove the sketchy characters.

[–] remotelove@lemmy.ca 28 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Your fix worked, and the post is not visible in my normal feed now.

Still, all the client devs probably just collectively emitted an audible eye roll.

[–] PhilipTheBucket@ponder.cat 26 points 1 year ago

That's me: Always breakin' stuff. Sorry about that.

[–] SatyrSack@feddit.org 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes, that seems to have fixed it for me. If I remove the keyword from my filter list and visit the community, the post shows up. But once I add that keyword back to the filter and visit the community, the post is gone.

[–] PhilipTheBucket@ponder.cat 13 points 1 year ago

Sounds good. Apologies again, it just didn't occur to me that that would happen.

Good call out. I am using Connect and it broke my filter as well.

Edit: yes.

Congratulations protest non-voters!

[–] adarza@lemmy.ca 28 points 1 year ago

russian agents in the white house, go fuck yourself!

[–] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 24 points 1 year ago

Is this the official plan now, and was it the same one that Russian propaganda channels were leaking?

[–] doctortofu@reddthat.com 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I was half expecting a "deal" along the lines of "all Ukrainians fuck off somewhere else and don't ever come back, and me and my ~~boss~~ pal Vlad are going to turn Ukraine into a luxury riviera" - this shit is pretty close...

[–] logos@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 year ago

You’re thinking of Palestine.
