    . I would’ve posted as text if that formatting was available.

    when creating the post, there is a text field for title and body. filling the url link or image is not necessary.

    so my first objection is about the form. you could use a text, or you could use a link - http://bash.org/?quote=5273

    turning a text to image is absolutely horrible thing to do - you turned what could have been 28 bytes into 17 kilobytes, so you increased the size by a factor of 600, and you degraded information in the process!

    my second objection is that that copying bash entries is meaningless activity - everyone can just go to where they already are to see them.

    and last - that post was not funny when it was new and time did not help it 🤷‍♂️

      Tap dancing Christ, I hope you’re not this dreadful in real life and just being an overly pedantic bore is something you reserve for the internet.

      Yeah, and I could browse every other website on my own to look for content I found relevant but the entire purpose of an aggregation site like Reddit or Lemmy is to…aggregate things.

      I found it amusing enough to toss it an upvote. Which is more than I could say for your needless dull reply.
