Why the hell would you upload two identical images within a couple minutes of each other? How does this improve the gallery in any way? Posting duplicates just to inflate your upload count is the same sort of self-serving behavior that got you demoted and banned in the first place.

Unfortunately a lot of builders seem to think this is acceptable. It's a remnant of the days when twitter had horrible compression, but now it's just a way to inflate upload count.

We had a couple discussions about it in the discord between approvers, and I've tried to flag some of them in the past, but they always end up reapproved because this behavior is not explicitly disallowed, so we're stuck with this situation until policy is changed from above.

A bit of devil's advocacy here, but someone else definitely would have posted the twitter version if he had not.

As this is .png and is smaller than Pixiv version, this should be the parent in my opinion.
