Post memes here.
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.
- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), [email protected] can be better place for that
- 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. [email protected]

I'm in the 'Twitter posts aren't memes' side on this. Not even feeling slightly baited by the rage.
We'd welcome anything like this at [email protected].
/c/[email protected] - opens in your local instance
[email protected] - opens in it's home instance
They both work the same for me, from lemm.ee.
Are you using the lemmy web ui? I'm using liftoff and the second oneopens it in my local instance.
I'm literally just on the website, so yeah, I guess so.
I mean, this became a pretty prominent template so I don't know how much you can really say it's not a meme, unless you don't regard words in general as capable of being memes.
I think it's a meme, but the proliferation of this exact format is why they created c/microblogmemes. Otherwise meme communities become like 70% screenshots of text.
a meme is anything i find funny
my cat is a meme
who needs replication and proliferation of a specific idea
I literally noted that this became a meme template
Are copypastas not memes? Is a meme when reaction image, and the more image it is, the more memier it is?
