Isn't c/Programmer Humor already for memes?
Hear, hear!
I'd prefer to keep all lang communities on topic. E.g. I occasionally block and unblock !c/programmer_humor when I want to read technical news or just have a laugh. If memes crossed into all local subs, then the noise-to-news ratio couldn't be customized as easily.
Although I suppose tagging posts would be a better compromise.
Does Lemmy support tagging posts, or filtering feeds by tag yet?
Agreed, let's keep memes separate from serious posts
@Ategon@programming.dev is working on tagging, but I wouldn't expect it anytime soon. It's a big feature.
Tagging would make sense if the community becomes larger and naturally people start requesting it. For now, I think memes should stay in Pr. Humor
My thoughts exactly. Tagging them (if possible) is OK, but kind of annoying to need to go to all these different communities and filter memes when there is already a dedicated community for programming memes.
It also may turn off new arrivals that may be looking for a more serious community, and think all/most of the content is memes.
I didn't care before but you make a good point. I vote keep them separate.
