I'll take a stick figure meme made in Paint over AI. Literally just put the bare minimum of effort into it.

Does Pocket Paint (Android) count?

There's some charm to badly shopped memes though.

Evil monkey!

That's because they really ARE better than AI memes

Shut up Maig.

The more effort you put into your terrible, artisanal shitposting, the more I'm going to love it.

Handcraft is always superior to factory-made. Even when it is crude - it has character and attitude about it. Except for explosives.

Why shopped?

You can always shoot for krits with Krita, or show you haven't bathed this year (easy on Jan 2026) by being proficient in GNU Image Manipulation Program.

My last post was made in the latter as a test.

Well, I find them funny. Probably why I'm generally laughing more than the rest of you.
