Yeah it's been pretty shitty for months now, I'll grant you that.
I know Ghost Archive is a thing but I've no read on how durable it is long term. Still, a .jpg alone is never going to be sufficient for me. It's too easy to spoof something that seems legit in order to gin up animosity in a direction that's advantageous to bad actors. There needs to be some awareness that there are those who would gleefully psyop the fuck out of everyone on this board for their own machinations and we can prevent that with just a modicum of verification effort. This is going to become increasingly important as generative AI tech improves and we enter an era where we will have "genuine" polaroid photos of Hitler riding a dinosaur into battle against Winston Churchill, except it'll be something far more subtle and and believable.
