A fediverse post by Dataline (@somebody@tech.lgbt). It has an screenshot of a discord message saying “have you guys seen how people are unlocking xiaomi bootloaders now step 1: ask store to downgrade firmware step 2: before they relock the bootloader run away with your device.”. The screenshot has two imgur links showing this happening.

Why is this a screenshot of a Mastodon post of a screenshot of forwarded Discord messages
First of all, its not mastodon, its wafrn (app.wafrn.net), second of all, the person probably got the discord messages and wanted to share it with other people publicly.
Ok why did you post this horizontally uncropped abomination instead of the actual meme
To give credit to the person I stole it from, and to have the emoji reacts be visible.
While that’s respectable, just link the original meme in the post body - if I want to see a meme on my phone, I want the whole meme and nothing but the meme.
cant crop it yourself?
its wafrn (app.wafrn.net),
Federated tumblr-esque thingy with personal blogs/pages that can be stylized. Interesting
And it has bluesky support.
3rd of all, its actually really, really hard to crop an image, or use an area constrained screenshot tool.
=P
Banger post. On samsung if you do things in the wrong order while unlocking the bootloader you must wait 24 hours to try again. Also all of your data gets wiped. I installed postmarketOS on mine :3
My old samsung phone had an openable bootloader, but there was no firmware for it :(
looting back your own hardware is based
