The underlying mechanism there is generally that the other party doesn't contest that the printout is in fact of a picture from their phone, or that the screenshot from Reddit is in fact of something they wrote.
I'm not a trial lawyer, but I suspect that it's not a great defence strategy to deny basic matters of fact.

So a screenshot of a conversation might be admitted, and the opposing lawyer would have to argue or bring forth witnesses arguing that the screenshot was faked.
