    2 critical replies in, opened your profile saw 500 comments and no posts, June join date. Most of the recents deal in Linux. Dropped it there. I didn’t say reddit is better, I’m saying the stereotype of redditors is to complain but not do anything about it.

    If the differences between a shitpost and a meme were better defined maybe I’d find myself adhering to those definitions better. But in my long experience downloading memes/shitposts/funny pictures (over 5000 now) most places use these terms interchangeably. Losing a post to moderation here and there ain’t so bad, it’s more of a learning experience to not post anything too similar to that.

      You just described human nature then ascribed it to Redditors in particular…

      Ok so what’s so bad about an (accurate) criticism on occasion that “this is not a meme”? Sounds also like a thing you could learn from.

      Instead of asking me to post more stuff. if I took your advice and suddenly matched your every post, then we, I guess, would end up with one post that is a meme and one that isn’t. That’s a marginal improvement I guess, but it ignores the fact that people who post could just care that words have meaning
