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.

I wanted to write a whole paragraph but you summed it up nicely. I'd also add that I'm afraid allowing memes, even on a single day, could be a slippery slope, and that I'd rather keep them on another community.

yeah, I think trying to make everyone happy with forced coexistence (instead of just having two distinct areas) might actually be likely to only create more friction
