I was kind of hoping that these kinds of posts would stay at reddit where they belong.
Awesome, with low post counts and users on Lemmy, and an upvote system that mimics Reddits - your shit out of luck with whatever agenda for keeping lemmy "small" or however you pictured it in your mind.
The upvotes have spoken and the community wants to see this type of information.
We can discuss in the feedback thread since I feel this is getting close to breaking Rule 6.
I don't think this post needs mod action, you are all grown-ups (or should at least, act like grown-ups here), but I would still like to encourage less low effort posts in the future.
Is it low effort though? There's an entire generation that wasn't around for the introduction of the iPhone and may have no idea this quote even existed.
Android currently has an image problem with this generation. To say the two are not related and chalking it up to "low effort" is, in itself, low effort.
This isn't even a Steve Jobs quote, it's a Picasso quote.
I'd say posting a screenshot of a quote and a title is pretty low effort. Write a sentence or two of your own thoughts in the text box when you submit something, it's not that hard.
Yes Picasso, famous artists who paints pictures like everyone else… hmm, perhaps the quote doesn’t mean what everyone assumes it does.
Alright smartass, it effectively became his quote when he referenced and repeated it and applied it to his specific industry.
This generation may also have no awareness of the Picasso quote either, ya pedantic smartass.
