Some people look at the community more than others, and so they get bored at repetitive memes very quickly.
Some people look at the community very infrequently, and so see the “new” jeans meme trend, and post their own.
The meme gets downvoted a shitton, but they don’t see the downvote because they don’t visit often.
As long as the trend is low effort enough to participate in, there are no repercussions from downvotes, and the amount of time different people spend here varies, this will continue happening.
That’s why i think we should ban GenAI posts.
GenAI posts are dumb and unfunny anyway because people don’t put effort into them.
I understand that side of the argument 100%, but really it doesn’t last all that long, and it’s not like there’s all that much content being posted anyway.
This kind of stuff brings the community together, generates a couple laughs for people who often don’t laugh all that much and honestly I’d be willing to bet that the people who found it annoying enough to actually be angry at it wouldn’t have laughed at much else anyway.
I do feel bad for people who were annoyed by it, and I also understand the argument against AI. I participated in the bean and jean posting but personally I never used AI and very rarely upvoted AI generated content but I don’t mind it, sometimes it hits.
I’ve had a blast playing with gimp and learning more about the workflow and image editing software and I will make no apologies for that >:3
meme becomes thing.
people like meme.
other people don’t like meme.
meme goes away.
But the memories are forever.
Jemories
I mean yeah, of course. The jemories, the bemories and the memeries. They’re all encompassed in the memories.

Meme is fleeting
Meme is jeeting
Exactly
Looks like a healthy cycle to me. A good indicator that the community is thriving. Love it!
