This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Jesus Christ I guess I’m not misremembering.

Bing’s reverse image search is essentially dead in 2024 unless you’re uploading the Mona Lisa. It’s really, really terrible and even worse than Google.

My favorites right now are Tineye, Yandex, and Google, in that order.

Strange, for me Tineye has not a single time been able to identify ANY of the images I ever tried. Yandex has worked best for me

[–] Microw@lemm.ee 3 points 9 months ago

Same, tineye only ever worked for me if I uploaded a picture that was by Reuters or something and therefore on lots of reputable sites. In any other cases it found nothing.

Just that name Tineye. Now I need to find images I have a reason to search.

Does it have connotations? I don’t know them.

Tineye? Yea it's used in Branden Sanderson's Mistbourne books. People have the ability to ingest different metals for different abilities.

People who ingest tin, gain heightened senses. Vision, hearing, touch, etc. They are known as "tineyes".
