Joke’s on you, I make my memes in GIMP and put the mematic watermark in myself!
No one should have to suffer through gimp.
So you’d rather have ADs in place of a Layers panel?
Ublock doesn’t fully work but there are extensions to block ads on Photopea.
Oh no! Not a means for a sole developer of a robust, web-based photo editor to make some sort of a living.
The fucking travesty of it all.
Listen, it sucks that it’s not open source and that it is now ad-sponsored but the fact remains that there are shockingly poor FOSS alternatives to creative tools (blender is probably one of the few exceptions) and gimp is firmly in that ‘shockingly poor’ category.
It’s okay to be critical of an open source project and use something that may be proprietary. The world isn’t going to blow up because of it.
poor FOSS alternatives
So you’d rather have ADs in place of a Layers panel?
For those who can't read between the lines
The fact that it has ADs, is also considered as one of the factors deciding its quality.
And so is the fact that it can’t be run when the internet connectivity is slow/non-existent.
Not considering those features as factors while judging the application just gives incentive to everyone else (including the prepaid ones) to include ADs in their UX.If this is how we promote them, soon, you’ll be seeing ADs (on top of the Subscription fees) in Adobe software.
- Hard to believe? Look at Windows.
Between ads and gimp, I choose ads.
Beyond it not being FOSS and requiring an Internet connection, ads are beyond a dealbreaker for me. I’d recommend the cost and effort of manually compositing with transparent film, lightbox, and cameras over anything with ads.
Yeah, the dev has a right to make a living but there are better ways than contributing to the rot of the Internet and inserting vectors for malware into your software.
It’s better to choose knowingly rather than unknowingly, so… nice.
Never knew this was a thing, are people bothered by shit like that?
Yes. I use Ublock Origin to remove “social buttons” from websites just because it annoys me
People are weird.
Yes how weird it is to think effort should be prerequisite to posting
And here we have one of those weird people!
There’s nothing wrong with having a little text down in the bottom corner.
There’s nothing wrong with effort
lol im not getting drawn into this with one of you people.
starts conversation
“I’m not getting drawn into this!”
There just really is no point. You have your opinions about levels of effort that must be put into shitposts, I simply could care less. So there is a watermark on a meme. At the end of the day it doesn’t matter to 99% of the people who see it so…why even argue about it being there?
Actual X Ray image of people who care about unobstructive watermarks
Actual X-ray of people who think brains show up in detail on X-rays
Uhm… your brain shows unhealthy amounts of bone buildup, but at least its big af dude, no worries
How heavy would a brain made out of bone even be? That must kill your neck.
For those pixel (may be all android ?) users wanting a super easy way…
Make the meme, but before clicking generate, swipe to screenshot. You will get the android “do you want just the image” box which keys you copy/save without the watermark
Or on non-Google Android (which doesnt scan your screenshots lol) just take a screenshot and crop it.
Fossify Gallery can do that.
But android is Google…
No
Android is made by Google, but if you change small parts of it, it has no connections to it. Especially because they develop many parts as proprietary addons onto AOSP (Android open source project) like that strange screenshot crop thing. So no google apps = no tracking often.
GrapheneOS changes a lot of the underlying stuff to degoogle too, but thats not that much.
*actual self-portrait.
Um… yes. That’s the joke.
Yes i made a meta-joke
Fun fact, some meme generator websites use HTML canvas to show you a preview
Funner fact, you can right click on the canvas and select “copy image” to get a watermark free image (in my experience using imgflip at least)
Firefox (idk about other browsers) also has a feature where you can right click the element on the website and directly make a screenshot just of this element, that should work as well.
Photo pea if you need it on your phone.
I don’t get it. Is the default Android app not good enough to do that stuff on Mobile?
If you are using Linux phone, you have KolourPaint,
imagine not using paint instead
Right? scrubs using a computer program for creating memes, instead of painting them on a canvas.
i mean getting the image and making the collage can be done in any simple image editor
Leave me alone.
