Thing with these Memes is that the watermark doesn't detract from the meme's joke and most memes are old video catpures and super pixelated anyways, so who cares?

I use an app with a similar name (MemeTastic, but it makes those image macros, though), but I don't need to pay anything AND there is no watermark on any meme!

You CAN have your cake and eat it too

Fair enough, I mean who'd wanna use THESE templates?

Time travellers from 2013, without a doubt

But that also does mean that (almost) nobody knows about MemeTastic but everyone knows mematic

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Which is great if you want hipster cred and irrelevant for the end user otherwise 😁

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No, it means that everyone who wants to create a meme image instantly thinks of and downloads mematic

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Nope. I've seen the mematic watermark literally thousands of times and made many memes. Never used mematic to do so, let alone downloaded their app.

Not everyone is as susceptible to advertising as you seem to think..

Just use Meme Generator on android. It has all the templates and no watermark.

Use krita on desktop

It is open source by the good folks from KDE

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Even better, use GIMP because Krita was intended to be a drawing software and GIMP was intended to be a photo editing software.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I tried gimp, didn't like it much

Felt right at home with krita

[–] solidsnake2085 3 points 1 year ago

My wife uses Krita on her drawing pad.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

Use MS paint like a civilized person.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It has some pro templates too, but guess what, just use a bigger one and crop it out after.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Putting watermarks on memes is a sin.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

This shit post took way more effort than it should have.

But wow was it worth it.

Mobile: Meme Generator Pro

Windows: Paint 3D

Linux: Krita

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why not Krita (or gimp or whatever) on Windows?

[–] c0mbatbag3l 2 points 1 year ago

Paint 3D is really intuitive and has nice tools.

I don't really have the speed with Krita. Never used GIMP.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I approve Linux version

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

get cropped, you fuck!

  • you
[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Right click and save on the preview without the watermark

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Android: power button and volume down button simultaneously

Windows: "Print Screen" button on your keyboard (sometimes shortened to Prt Scr, located at the top towards the right between "Insert" and "Pause/Break") and paste into MS Paint or whichever photo editing software you use

and OP

Actually OP's meme is literally about taking a screenshot... that's what the white bars are representing

D'oh! I need more coffee and to edit my comment! Thanks for pointing that out! 🤦😂
