How do I cope with the Steam Community? (lemmus.org)

I go to Steam regularly to play my games, usually posting simple screenshots of my game sessions. But when I go to the communities I see Internet videos, GIFs, memes, and memetic everything and it's not really my thing. I even posted on Lemmy that I didn't like memes in general and what do they post on here? It feels like people are having fun by abusing their humanity in the process or like a Reddit subreddit, and I specifically came to Lemmy on the Fediverse to avoid all that. They post things that I'm uncomfortable with and typically I don't have fun by posting Internet memes for a living...that's just weird.

Does anyone agree or does everyone here do it anyway?

Maybe there is no need to cope in the sense that it’s just not a good fit for you. I use Steam to play my games, but I have no interest in the community features.
