but it also robs it of any link to the original source

genuinely one of the reasons i started posting here was it was one of the only forums that seemed to make sense in its layout (ie nesting comments)

reading a thread on new dis and having to go back and forward to see what people are replying to does my head in. each to their own though.

Seriously?

Not like the people or anything like that?

Just the nice formatting?

Yeah but if you click the little icon in the top right of a post you can expand and contract the subthread if you want anyway.

yeah. it was just easier on the eye. you could read it and it made sense. hate other forums that have a quote function and scrolling down a thread you have to reread the OP / most of the thread that some dickhead has quoted in full every other post.

i know, just think the other way was much better

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

But if it’s just a picture it shouldn’t matter? It doesn’t grab pictures from linked articles? Not really sure what you mean, TBH.

because you’re effectively stealing someone’s content. people use tracking to see where their stuff is being used, who’s linking it, etc. by removing the link you stop people from being able to do that.

Ah right, sorry, you’re talking from an image use / copyright POV? Yeah I’m not sure about that. I mean I don’t know if that affects you would still (I believe) have a log showing where this site originally leeched but it would be a one-off hit rather than a continuous one due to constant reload.

this is like your wife telling you she was initially attracted to you because you had good table manners or something

it’s not that weird is it? before reading anything, if it looks like a nightmare you don’t bother

like those new websites that have huge background pictures and really weird scrolling. might have amazing #content but i’ll never find out

feel like i’m going proper ‘old man shouts at cloud’ here
