Keep posting them, but we should just copy the text and link to the source instead of screenshooting a couple of sentences like my mom, no? This would save some disk space and power consumption as well.

Maybe, but image posts drive more engagement than text ones. You can see on !lowqualityfacts@lemmy.zip that the text posts, which are no worse LQFs than any other ones IMO, score noticeably lower.
I like sites / Lemmy frontends that provide some kind of ‘teaser’ for text posts (they also show a bit of the post’s body in the main feed), meaning you can often see both the feed line and the punchline for a post without going into it (it works well for ‘dad jokes’ for example). But the default frontend - lemmy-ui - doesn’t do that, so it hobbles the potential of text posts.
