It seems like a joke about OP realizing they're trans more than anything.
It's not about the Xbox slowly becoming garbage and OP regrets not getting a PC? π€
How do you figure? Not disagreeing Xbox has become garbage or that PC isn't better.
The xbox ecosystem is about to collapse and most of the decisions micorosoft made for it to be where it is happened in the last 5 or 6 years.
Well, I don't know OP, so maybe.
But the meme he posted is about a generation's trauma and its dark consequences.
Totally belongs in a serious meme- or society-community, but seeing it filed under "funny" really annoys me.
Well, it's not a "wholesome memes" community. I get your point insofar as cynical humor can be frustrating at times.
Cynical! Thank you, that was the word I have been looking for the whole time!
But I still think that posting the meme to this funny community reduces it to an actual joke.
Placing it under c/memes or so would still preserve its cynical form while much less affecting its serious core premise.
I'm gonna need you to edit that "he" to a "Her", "They", or "It", in accordance with @Speedforce@multiverse.soulism.net's pronouns, which you can find by clicking on Her profile.
Except you can't. I actually had a look at her profile before writing the comment and would have used the pronouns, if there had been any:
Ah, that's because you're using Lemmy, which doesn't support the feature.
If you use a PieFed instance and client such as MULTIVERSE, you'll be able to see the pronouns field on a user's page.
That's actually interesting, didn't know that (and also have no idea what Piefed actually is, I have to confess...)
Might especially be crucial information to OP, as she might not be aware that the pronouns she supplied on the page aren't visible to a whole bunch of people.
Did you tell her already?
(Edit: I just did)
She just went to bed, so I'll have to tell Her when Her timezone hits morning. In the meantime, if you want to learn about piefed you can check out https://piefed.social/ or https://multiverse.soulism.net/ and decide if you like the features better.
Personally, I've met the lead devs of both Lemmy and Piefed, and consider the lead dev of Piefed to be a much more pleasant and hardworking person, which explains why Piefed has so many more features. The Lemmy dev team spend most of their time arguing why Stalin's homophobia wasn't so bad, which explains why they don't put out many feature updates.
