It’s just nostalgia. In 2010 reddit was nothing but image macros and le rage comics, and it was 99% garbage.

Oh god, that r/ffffuuuu or whatever subreddit lasted way too long
Show threadthe_brownieJul 14, 2023
It’s still barely limping along. For a while, if you wanted some quality cringe content, you could get it by scraping the bottom of the barrel there.

There cannot be people who still find those entertaining in 2023 can there? I don’t want to go on reddit to check

I have an aunt who keeps posting minions memes in 2023, so… yeah

Random pictures of Minions and right-wing propaganda, name a more iconic duo.
Show threadssillyssadassJul 14, 2023
Definitely, there doesn’t seem to be many good memes posted on Lemmy overall.

They seem better because they’re references you’re more familiar with

That’s how I heard someone describe watching reboots of old TV shows and movies.

New content, but require less mental energy to get into.

…also probably why our parents listen to “golden oldies” radio stations.

AdviceAnimals was the place where it all started for me. It was definitely better than what we have had for quite some time. I bet older templates were used so much that people didn’t have new ideas of how to use them anymore. So the quality of the captions went down, more and more people used them incorrectly and they were dropped altogether for f@#d%g screenshots

I miss pre-wojack memes.

Wojack is irredeemably Right-wing to me. I can’t enjoy them.

The whole black outline traced character mermen are such a cop out.

I’m firmly in the camp of “they’re better”
Show threadUtMan1988Jul 14, 2023
Much better. Think they had a much wider appeal.
Show threadTrainguyromJul 14, 2023

I have to disagree. Zoomers are freaking wild and a hoot!

I am however thoroughly concerned for the attention span of the next “generation” (even though there’s no big population boom creating these generations anymore) since they seem to devour content involving 2 unrelated videos plus an unrelated audio track, or if it is a single video it’s so fast paced and bombastic it honestly makes me need a nap afterwards. They take in such a firehose of content it’s scary

Show threadSteeveJul 14, 2023
Memes got overly political. I liked when it was all jokes, but around 2016 the world split into extremes, COVID pushed that even further, and now we can’t talk about anything else on the internet

I don’t think either is “better” they are just different and it’s OK to like one over the other.

Memes in 4chan 15 years ago were pure gold.

(or was I too young and easily impressed?)

Old memes weren’t better, you’re just getting the ones people liked so much they saved. It’s distilled meme content, only leaving the best, most flavorful™️ memes

Memes™, now with flavour!
