I don’t care for the bean memes, but hey, it’s making a few people happy haha. I’m for that.
It’s generating content and clicks. Which is INCREDIBLY important for a social media. The content doesn’t have to be good, and obviously Lemmy isn’t the same as Reddit or other social media in terms of value of upvotes, or algorithms. However it’s important for USERS to see content that’s fresh hitting the front page. Even if it’s the same topic and shitposting. This helps attract other creators which in turn brings more users. It’s the shit circle of (social) life.
They’re getting a bit overplayed at this point maybe. But they’re driving engagement on this site and engagement is the key to growth so I say have at it you beanie bois
