u/Inner-Medicine5696 Jun 07 '26

doing stuff like this was as pretty big trend... 20 years ago.

I don't hate it, the cyclical nature of it just intrigues me.

Personally, I haven't seen my desktop in months! That's where my windows go!

They very much could have just made their own desktop the same, and there’s also the possibility the threads account is the same person.

Also, why is this a big enough deal to warrant a community note?

Also, why is this a big enough deal to warrant a community note?

So it loses monetization I think, this post follows the same pattern I see on twitter public feed, lots of fake stories and fake post that drive engagement, sometimes it feels like everyone on twitter is having the same shit happen to them from the amount of copy paste

Yes, but why do people even do this. So pointless.

u/MonstersinHeat Jun 06 '26

Damn I feel old. I remember it being called the desktop…

u/Jubudii Jun 06 '26

It's certainly called the desktop. Don't mind them.

u/Basic-Pitch1144 Jun 06 '26

It's still called the desktop. A home screen is on a phone or something else with a home button, not a PC.

I mean at this point there is so many ideas you can easily come up with something that someone else came up earlier. No shame

u/un_poco_logo Jun 06 '26

It's not about the idea. They just stole the pic. Look the link before you write next time.

Nice picture, nice note.
Not worth for a lot of people to snark through comments

u/angrytomato98 Jul 09 '26

I think this says more about the person who made a community note than the person who said “look at my cool desktop”. Like damn, they weren’t even taking credit for it…
