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 a post is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
  6. Be nice. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements to private messages.
  7. No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

Holy crap!

Honestly, I could have done without the 67 one, though...

You know what? Just because of this, I'm going to switch back to DuckDuckGo.

Every 4get instance uses it as a backend anyway.

Does DuckDuckGo have reverse image search? Is it called DuckDuckCome?

DuckDuckCome is not what you think it is.

Unbelievable. I tried it and it is true!

Same, it's wonderful.

This brings me copious amounts of joy

The other day i have noticed a similar easter egg when typing in “podman”. It’s interesting as podman is fairly niche.

It also works for Hatsune Miku and Kasane Teto. It didn't use to work for Akita Neru but looks like they added that after people pointed out they forgot her lol.

Tried a few characters and Mario, Luigi and Link work as well.

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 2 points 59 minutes ago* (last edited 58 minutes ago)

As does Sherlock Holmes and Gollum!

"Duck Duck Go Moby Dick" sounds a lot like "Go Go Gadget Moby..." well, guess I'll have to leave that incomplete now
