Microblog Memes

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 an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
- Absolutely no NSFL content.
- Be nice. Don't take anything personally. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements & arguments to private messages.
- No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

Huh?
Wot?
The existence of such a rule anywhere on Lemmy is news to me so I am asking for clarification, such as on where it applies and since when.
The front page of this community. 3 months ago.
Bc passive aggressive people kept reporting content they didn't want to see in order to get it removed instead of just scrolling past it.
So now there seems to be an awful lot of "you posted this to the wrong community bc it's not a meme" comments. As though it's somebody's first time seeing a post to this community, and they have no idea that microblog memes is not the memes community.
Like I've lost track of how many times I've heard that same bullshit, so I usually just assume it's some passive aggressive asshole being passive aggressive.
I see, thank you. Haven't noticed the phenomenon you describe, will keep an eye out.
