Yes, I know, but I won't share only the image posted from another user from the fediverse (Mastodon). Same if I want to share the post from another user in Lemmy. Screenshots are indicated more in X, Fakebook and similar. For sure you also don't like when I copy one of your posts here in Lemmy and share it here as own post.
Actually I post memes to make people laugh, and I don't want to make them jump through hoops. I think you can include the link in the description, to give attribution.
Well, but I don't see your problem with a hoop. it's the fault of Lemmy to open the site in the same tab, which is easy to avoid with a middle click on the link, same as it ocurrs in other posts. eg. news or articles in Lemmy.
A lot of us look at lemmy on our phones. But if you want to give credit to the OP why not post the picture and then just drop the link to where you got it from?
