        None of the “memes” I see these days in “meme” communities are memes and it’s honestly mildly annoying.

          I’ve noticed this trend with “You Laugh You Lose” videos as well (yes, people are still doing those). Oftentimes they’re 50/50 neat facts and incredibly niche brainrot memes.

        Because the mods in this community give zero fucks about what’s posted. You’re more likely to get comments removed for pointing out shitty posts than a shitty post will be pulled.

        because it’s one of the biggest communities and splitting everything up into 1000 sub-communities makes all of them too small to be interesting, and i’d rather have one big “haha that’s funny” meme community than 1000 small specific communities
