Please don’t turn this community into a meme dumping ground. You can go to r/piracy for that.

No one should go to that website ever. But it's true, we should have a dedicated piracy memes community, or do we already have one? But until lemmy is this small it wouldn't help if the communities were even more fine grained.

There should probably be a piracymemes community to prevent this from the get go

Memes always take over communities because of how much upvotes they receive. Also, they spark discusssions which sometimes are quite interesting (altough off topic).

It's worse here too because you can actually filter out the memes from r/piracy, Lemmy has no such feature since it still lacks a flair/tag system

Please, I hate discussion coms turning into meme chambers

Ah, and the redditors can't cope with knowing their community has become just another meme community, and yet they feel like it is so important and the last good community for Reddit 😂

It is actually funny the delusionalism you get when you give a quick look there.
