Maybe you could offer them buyouts

I've enabled option that won't show read posts, cool thing actually

I fail to see how sharing memes is a bad thing. Lemmy is a great community, its leagues better than what Reddit was, even in its heyday, and certainly better than the shit-buffet it has become.

While OC is great, it's really tough to make, especially at the frequency needed to provide new content and keep people interested. Further, 90% (or something) of people on here lurk, with the remaining 10% split between commentators and posters.

Don't like it? Vote with your feet.

Kinda like the guy that was posting daily screenshots of his gaming sessions that spawned like, three copycats this past summer?

You might be seeing posts from the 196 community, which recently split up (personally, I had the old ones blocked and then due to it splitting, the new 196 community showed up in my feed).

The 196 community is very much about quantity-over-quality, when it comes to posts, and as such reposts do happen often, too.
No shade on that, but it's also not for everyone, so yeah, you might want to just block those communities.

It's like the Nazis how they tried to make everything the same

eh Im just happy yall are here

Perfect post 5/7 score! The narwalls bacon at midnight! Did your mom break both your arms?

Yeah, switching from reddit to lemmy gives a "old internet" wibe: actual people, most of them technically inclined. But with more adoption, these people get diluted by all other kinds of folks.

Same happened with cypto scene. It started with cythography entusiasts, but now it is mostly tech bros.

How to about that bot that reposts r/buildapc? What even is the point of reposting people's questions if they they're on another platform and won't see the it?
