Edit: the results are in!

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.

Also feel free to discuss it in the comments!

What would a gaming community be without memes

Worth being a part of?

Memes are low-effort garbage. If you want gaming memes, go start up c/GameMemes or something. Leave the main community to discuss the topic instead of clogging it up with this stuff.

Using reddit as the example, /r/games was waaaay better than /r/gaming, because you could actually have a halfway decent conversation about games rather than having to scroll past endless page after page of the stupidest useless crap.
