Shitpost is a catchall community. You can post just about anything here. There's a lot of discussion that goes on in some posts, and other posts that are simply 'heh bewbs' level content.

I love the randomness of it because it jives with the way my brain works. I flit about like a methed up hummingbird, and so does this community.

It's becoming the main discussion sub because it has the most eyeballs at any given time. Also, not a lot of repost bots because there's no political rage bait or random articles with zero comments. Just pure shitty memes.

I feel like Lemmy/Piefed made a big mistake if you compare it to the early days of Reddit. Peoplee here always try to put everything into neat little categories called communities, but most of them are dead or only have a single person posting stuff with zero comments. In the early days of Reddit there were no subreddits, you can still see how that looks on Hacker News for example. Lemmy should've started like that and introduce communties much later, as a consequence !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world has become the catch all community all this should've started with.

That's true.

I have three pretty much dead communities I made which seemed like good ideas at the time but are just way too niche and I have way too little time to promote them. I'm subscribed to a pile of communities that are dead as well
