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.
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
I don't think it's a zoomer thing, it's basically the evolution of shitposts. It's low effort (or trying to appear that way) and trying to communicate something (often a vague feeling or a joke, and the joke is often playing off another meme)
There's no reward for getting people to read your posts here, no algorithm to game. It's more like memes for the sake of communication than entertainment, it's more of a small community thing than anything else... It's been around since image sharing became a thing
There's more mainstream memes on here too, but they're basically different genres of meme
