    because an image implies it’s posted by someone else originally, it’s a part of how online communication works and you complaining about it kinda paints you as an outsider

      If it was posted by someone else originally, then they can include the username and the platform layout in the screencap. Without that it does not imply it was posted by someone else originally. It implies someone is attempting to fake that it was posted by someone else originally, most likely for fake internet points in communities where text posts can’t or won’t earn those precious upvotes that an image would.
