Seriously, half of Lemmy needs to learn what a fucking meme is.
Honestly its been 12 months and I'm thinking of installing the Reddit app because sometimes I just want to look at dumb funny shit because the world is depressing. I open lemmy and the memes community is full of political cartoons about Gaza and all the shit I'm trying to take a break from for 10 minutes.
Meme has a certain format to it. This format is just ragebait fake news.
I think that's what he's saying, we're in the meme community and this clearly isn't a meme
For me, !superbowl@lemmy.world is basically the only active community that I really love on Lemmy and the main reason why I keep coming back here. Other places can be fun too, but Superbowl is just different. There are so many funny owl pictures in them as well as so many informative posts (mainly the Owl-natomy Posts). Also, it is a very positive place. I highly recommend checking it out!
have you not seen the further enshittification? eeyugh. Lemmy isn't perfect but in my experience it's already better than Reddit was before the API exodus. You do you, but wow...
It's the same as it ever was: some communities you go for good discussion, others you should just avoid the comments because you know they'll only rile you up
Like... the Memes community should be for memes?
