Hey all. Due to a recent influx of meme related posts, we are going to be enforcing a new Meme Monday rule. Meme’s posted outside of Monday will be removed.

Thanks for understanding.

    Seems weird to me that a platform starved for content and engagement would limit one of its largest forms of content to only be allowed on 1 day per week. 🤷‍♂️

      Memes tend to not be a great discussion starter. If there is an overwhelming amount of memes, interactions and discussions can easily be buried and socially discouraged as a result.

        That’s fair. I spent probably 15 years on that other site lurking some really fantastic conversations in the comments, but it’s hard to find any posts here with more than a few comments. I’d much prefer active comment sections, but I’d settle for memes. I get where you’re coming from, hopefully this will help the conversations.

      Matter of opinion. I would rather have an empty feed than have to scroll past all the memes I have no interest in.

        Agreed. It gets to the point where if anything, it’s inhibitive to growth because people just zip right on past it before ultimately unsubscribing.

      I blocked the user who flooded the community with shitposting, I prefer no content rather than shitty, low quality content

      I left plenty of subreddits because that kind of content was rampant and it was hard to find actual quality content, because those posts were buried in shitty memes
