    This is just the latest trend of shitpost, I mean we had beans, we had Beef Stroganoff, and now people are posting Jemes, each time people say they are fed up with it after a couple days. This too shall pass.

      Because new people are hopping on the bandwagon late so instead of the shit lasting a couple of days it becomes over a week of shit

        Yep it’s the low-effort AI generated stuff that’s the problem. Some people just… aren’t funny, sorry 😅

          Same thing happens in the communities for AI images. Some user will make a picture of a clever idea, but then other users copy the idea and beat the dead horse.

          I don’t get it. They literally have the tools to make images of any idea, and they choose to use it to make somebody else’s idea over and over.

                Sadly. I will ever understand the mindset of taking joy from bandwagoning. “yay, I’m doing something completely and utterly unoriginal for the 10000th time, wooo!”

                I’d fucking die of boredom.

                    Lazy jokes that are sometimes funny. Just like normal lazy jokes people repeat. It’s not a new phenominon. It’s just a new medium. A “new medium” that’s decades old.

        I mean I’m pretty sure he agrees “this too shall piss” cause we all know it always comes down to piss.

      Also, most new Reddit refugees at this point (and I feel like there’s been a minor surge lately because of all the IPO crap) probably haven’t internalized that there’s no system-wide karma here, and karma-whoring is entirely pointless in the context of the fediverse.

        Ah yes, and at some point we will look back fondly at the Jemes, and say “those were the days…”
