Hey all!

Since Lemmy is a new platform with new communities. We as the c/Games community have to decide what we want to be.

The last days I saw several posts with (low) effort memes. Some seem to enjoy it, some report it because they want a more serious discussion on here.

Therefore, I would like to ask you for your opinion: What should happen to memes on this community?

Please take a moment to fill in the poll. It will close on Monday.

Old Reddit user turned Lemmy here. Memes are fun and all, but they also get out of hand very quickly and we're stuck with a sub with low-effort memes instead of actual discussion/news. Once a month meme day could work though.

Exactly. A space for serious discussion and analysis of games and gaming on Lemmy could have so much potential, and allowing low-effort memes here would undermine that.
