Link to the actual post OP screenshotted: https://very.bignutty.xyz/notes/9hf13it1ced3b2za

Screenshots of text are not the way. The crappy “hey, a text thing I want to share, let me take an accessibility-poisoning screenshot and upload that graphic file like a psychopath instead of just copy/pasting either the link to the text or the text itself like a decent human being” routine needs to die with Reddit, we have to be better than that here.

Screenshots stay with time, I hate it when I arrive a bit later and the link is already dead and I have no idea what it said.

Copy/pasted text stays with time too and doesn't have the issues that pictures of text do. Also hosted images disappear all the time.
