Can’t escape Cory Doctorow’s observation that the internet is “five giant websites, each filled with screenshots of text from the other four”.
We may be away from those 5 sites, but the behaviours and content from them is very much here.
Ironic because this is the second time I’ve seen this image posted
The most Reddit thing is complaining about reposts.
Complaining about complaining about reposts has already been posted before.
Yeah, this comment looks like a repost.
Drown them out with oc!
Be the change you want to see
Reposting popular material isn’t a reddit thing, it’s a human thing.
There will always be someone who just discovered that whatever from a couple years ago and likes it enough to post it. The larger the user base, the more common this becomes.
One of today’s “lucky 10,000” as it were.
Relavemt XKCD comic
Yep. I actually don’t mind it as long as it’s not constant. It’s nice to see things again.
When you really kinda like the Lemmy fediverse thing, but people post their memes to multiple communities without using crospost so you keep seeing the same thing over and over.
I stole this from another user fair and square!
And then there are posts complaining about the posts
As someone who left reddit over 2 years ago never go go back, a lot of the posts that people classified as “reddit reports” I have never seen before 😂
I think it’s more common when communities are newly created, as people want to populate the community with some content to kickstart activity and interest.
So hopefully it’ll just even out eventually, when communities become more self-sustaining and active.
One of the fundamental issues is that it’s just people.
People are going to talk about things like people do, and just because it ends up looking like Reddit or whatever doesn’t mean that this is a bad thing.
It just means that format is one of the ways that people tend to communicate.
And every other post is politics!
This place was originally built as a haven for godless commies
I think that politics being overbearing is hopefully just a trait of the election in the US, now that it’s over hopefully the US politics fanatics can move on to bigger and better things. Fingers Crossed.
now that it’s over
Oh, man. Where is that “living under a rock” video when I need it?
I may be optimistic, it didn’t seem to be that way prior to the US election cycle, then again though, there were less people at that time.
In short, the US is in the process of being turned into a full-on oligarchy or a dictatorship. There will be quite a bit of conversation about politics for the foreseeable future.
Trump is also actively antagonizing almost all of the rest of the world. It’s not a US-only subject anymore.
Plus conversation about the inevitable calamities.
Just remember, all. There’s nothing to fear but fear itself. And the horrors.
This but unironically! You wouldn’t download a car, you wouldn’t repost a meme. Property is
theftgood, actually.What’s new?
Anyways my top voted all time post was an OC meme about reposts.
