Memes are losing their meaning

I’m finding no matches for this image or some text on it, so it seems like you made this meme and posted it onto a forum which has only a couple of those criteria as its actual rules. Is this just bad faith smear campaigning to stir shit against this community and/or its mods?

Rule 3 is also the only one of these rules that is the slightest bit dubious. The rest are justifiable for most audiences and mod teams, assuming there’d be a reasonable time limit to when reposting would be permissible.

Did they ever have a meaning?

Idgaf what anyone shares as a "meme." I like the sharing. Even the overused templates remind me of better days. The tiktoks are ok too. It’s not like I’m using the app so it’s the only time I’ll ever see it.

Let others have joy. You can block people you don’t like, hide communities that aren’t working for you, or just scroll on by.

What community are you referring to?

And yet, plenty of memes to be had, shared, created, evolved and enjoyed.

Seems a skill issue?

So, after eliminating all those, what's left?
