Comment on Anon owns a fan

Rather than Frankenstein the past like a save icon, we could be finding ways to make quoted text green in this community on Lemmy, thus fulfilling the requirements.

Pictures get way more engagement than text posts though. Platforms and app feeds are heavily biased to show thumbnails.
Just a bit of css also wont retain its meme if people want to copy it.

But the original greentext isn’t a picture—only normies on other platforms than 4Chan end up with that format unless it is a fabricated one like this.

I cant be the only one that likes these despite not frequenting 4Chan.
Nonetheless the meme format works great for storytelling.
