A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

Love how Steam includes English (Simplified) as a language choice with the American flag next to it.
isn"t that just a meme?
No their use of English is genuinely horrific.
Come again?
You know I was reasonably sure it did that, but now I’m questioning it myself. I’m not going to spin up a Windows VM so I’ll just take this on the chin and apologise for potential misinformation.
dug out a youtube video from 5 months ago that showed how to install steam in windows 11; it has no flags and only labels for the Language Setting. But that screenshot also came from Windows 7 or even Vista, so maybe they actually did that back then? I dunno. But its on knowyourmeme.
A simple language for simple people.
