A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.
- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca
- Merkitse K18-sisältö tarpeen mukaan

Ooh I love this
Is there a community where there's daily interesting words, either from old timely English or just plain uncommon even in today's English?
That's how I learned English way back then, on top of having an awesome teacher encouraging it. She would ask the class to find a couple of words or give some weekly, have us write a couple sentences using it and she would correct us.
Searching for "etymology" on Sync for Lemmy brought up two results with less than 100 subscribers each.
Good shout. I'll do that, thanks!
