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.

- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

MODERATORS
I don't think crypto has ever been a viable payment system for use on the scale of Interac, Visa or MasterCard. Slow and wasteful.
I've been interested in GNU Taler for anonymous online payments, but it has some problems, namely the documentation is a bit dodgy.
If some dumb fucks can use a system to get rich quick off of other dumb fucks, it can never be a viable payment system.
I'm not really into crypto at all, but this could be said about regular cash as well to an extent
You know, the bandwidth used here could have been used to serve a meme or neat infographic.
