What the hell is up with the compression artifacts??

OP is too famous to waste their precious time on uploading uncompressed files.

Clearly.

It's trendy to post images with heavy compression artifacts. It's a meta-meme called "deep fried".

I think it harkens back to old xeroxing or the early web and how images would degrade over time. Artificially adding in jpeg compression and degradation makes the meme "more real" by explicitly reveling in the "copy of a copy of a copy" nature of internet memes.
