This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Yeah it doesn't have the remnants of being compressed to .jpg over 1000 times over. Just doesn't have the same feeling with it though.
So fresh it's still green
Oh wow. I've never seen one this fresh!
Funny, that's the same thing a stray cat said when it found that butt plug.

i rate this greentext fake on scale of 1 to gay
A wizard did it.
but anon's a wizard himself
and then the doctor says "I can't operate on this wizard... he's my son!!"
Anon is a Butt Wizard I think is what you meant
I'm having the perfect T-shirt for him
Btw: I couldn't upload the picture to Lemmy directly, as it's probably too large for my instance limits. But I'm not sure which image sharing platform is still ok to use (after imgur) and I'm even more stuck in how to embed the linked image correctly in a comment, besides just linking to it.
What's the correct way to do this?
Trying to embed the image:
Thank you very much!
Keep the t-shirt artwork flowing!
catbox.moe might be an option.
You might be better off learning to use an app or editing to crop and then swap old image formats to webp in order to get them much smaller. In Linux it usually happens automatically by just renaming the file from something like .jpg to .webp.
I would have grabbed the image to post it as an example but the postimg host is a mess of a website I don't let through my firewall (IIRC from the last time I tried). I don't think they allow direct embedding either, thus the reason their website is such a convoluted mess of junk happening in the background.
You could sign up on a Pixelfed instance, or self host if interested as that is part of the fediverse.
The image embedding syntax on Lemmy is 
Thanks, maybe it's my client that's limited.
But, Ehm ... Regarding the Linux part:
Just renaming a file shouldn't convert it to something else - at least Linux isn't doing that, especially as it doesn't cares that much about file suffixes.
So what do you mean, that automatically converts it?
If you rename something in the terminal, it just gets a different name (which includes the suffix), but that won't change anything in the data
What do I miss here?
Thanks for the pixelfed hint, I just signed up while posting, to have an alternative in the future :-)
And especially thanks for the Lemmy markdown formatting to embed an image!
That one was the thing, I was looking for!
Edit: and worked perfectly fine the embed the image from postimg - you just need to use the direct image link
At least it shows fine in the comment on my side now
Maybe I installed something or wrote a script that I forgot about (happens cause super sleep deprived from disability, broken neck and back), or maybe it is a fedora thing (I think it is this), but yeah, if I change the suffix it also changes the model file automatically. If it can't do the change it will tack on the additional suffix. So like if I try to rename image.jpg to image.png, it just does it, but if I rename image.jpg to image.svg it will automatically rename to image.svg.jpg to let me know that it does not work.
Hm...ok, never heard of that - at least not without extra programs
Does that also work from the terminal or only inside your file browser?
Because, as said, Linux usually doesn't care that much about suffixes, but much more about the file type in the file header.
At least that's my experience and what I've read.
But thanks for the info.
Not sure, if I'd like to have it though or rather not ;-)
Edit: and out of interest, what happens, when you rename it to something "near" like an svg or pdf, or something completely different like a mp3 - or interesting would also be a video format, if you only get a single frame then
Thanks, I've never heard of that and would really like to know what does it and how it's coping with things, that aren't compatible - or are harder to convert

Reminds me of a show I saw in Melbourne.
It was all a dream
butt plug tom strikes again
Anon ate too much hot sauce and it dissolved
You only make the mistake of using a calcium carbonate buttplug once.
Perhaps Anon inserted it in a dream?

I don’t want to guess
