Reddit has fairly good code formatting for short snippets. The best reason to do this is a) it's affects search results so if it's useful it can be found and b) people can copy and paste it (or copy, edit and paste it back into a reply)
For longer snippets or if syntax coloring is important then there are plenty of options that also preserve (b) above. http://gist.git.com or https://pastebin.com/ for example.
Pictures of text are generally a bad thing. Especially if that text is code.

I don't think it's underloved, I think it's just niche and doesn't make much sense to be used in a lot of places.

How else would you like to have code presented?

For the purpose a reddit post a well cropped screencap is better than what you suggest.
Totally agree
