bro are you just mass-crossposting things from reddit or what? Those camel case titles aren't really common here, you know.

If they are, that's good for Lemmy.

Helps with the network effect.

But it's not. U see any ads ? do you want to continue enjoying quality memes once a month instead?

Nope. Network effect happens if there's a network. For that you need an adequate amount of eyes per post so that people can start commenting and discussing stuff with one another.

Dump in hundreds of copy-posted memes without enlarging the user base and it does exactly the opposite of the network effect: With much more posts per viewer, the viewers are spread thin over the posts which means there are never enough people on one post to actually start a meaningful discussion in the comments.

are you saying that we're not all here commenting, regardless? 😥🥹
