I use imgflip but I had watermarks which is why I have to screenshot the image and then crop it and that is the hard part. It's very time consuming to crop an image on grapheneos with image toolbox

[–] FQQD@lemmy.ohaa.xyz 25 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Honestly, just leave the watermark. Imgflips watermark isnt THAT annoying and most viewers just filter it out.

[–] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 11 points 10 months ago

I literally give no fucks if there's a watermark on a meme. Like, none at all.

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago (1 children)

If cropping a screenshot takes you any longer than 5-10 seconds after taking it, you need to look at an alternative approach, because whatever you're currently doing ain't it.

[–] greenmike@programming.dev 4 points 10 months ago

Thanks. Yes, cropping takes very long

Cheat code for Imgflip that removes the watermark:

When the meme is created, don't click "Generate image." Instead, right click on the preview image and copy to clipboard. When you paste, it will retain the added text but not add the watermark

EDIT: I've only ever tested this on desktop. It apparently doesn't work on mobile

Does not work for me on mobile

[–] thatsTheCatch 1 points 10 months ago

I have not tested it on mobile, sorry. I've only ever used Imgflip on desktop

I have no clue what grapheneos is, but if it won’t run GIMP, then it’s a shitty OS.

[–] angel@iusearchlinux.fyi 13 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It doesn’t run GIMP because it’s an OS for mobile phones…

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Just use https://www.photopea.com/ then, it even works on my mobile phone.

[–] FQQD@lemmy.ohaa.xyz 11 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Every mobile operating system is shitty, confirmed

[–] bleistift2@feddit.de 11 points 10 months ago

That wasn’t what I intended to say, but I’m not disagreeing with that either.

[–] greenmike@programming.dev 3 points 10 months ago

It actually can run gimp. You can find krita on fdroid. It's just not optimized for it.

It's literally modified Android. Maybe do a little research before you comment.

I appreciate zombo so much I pay for all his apps I use. Image combiner is sweet and to the point.

[–] skulblaka@startrek.website 3 points 10 months ago

Just downloaded. Thanks for the tip 👍

Those of us on iOS aren’t as lucky. 😢 There was an attempt for iOS, but looks like it’s in development hell.

I see memes like this and think.....I do fit in here

[–] rotopenguin@infosec.pub 5 points 10 months ago

Watch a few episodes of "you suck at photoshop".

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Photolayers

[–] TheMightyCanuck@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago

I have a few templates saved so I can just pump some text into it and save it.

Most of the time my stock image edit software on my phone is sufficient

[–] distantsounds@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Photopea.com it’s free, photoshop-like, and web based.

[–] KpntAutismus@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

mematic works decent if you're on mobile. it is a (partially) paid non-FOSS app though.
