Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.

Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):

Please do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta

Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.

The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:

  1. This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.

  2. We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.

  3. As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!

  4. Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.

  5. Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).

  6. Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.

  7. Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.

I thought I saw a lotr or other meme community here?

Well, it's not like that's stopping anyone from spinning up one here.

This community has no affiliation with any of the Reddit subs either. In fact I had pinged mods of all four star wars meme Reddit subs about moving to Lemmy, and neither has even responded.

Maybe the admins went all Trade Federation and disrupted all communications.

That was even before the blockade.

Glad to see it growing. Made it a week before the blackout to have it ready and now the ball is rolling and it's getting a bunch of users

Hmm seems to be an empty community for me?

I think it depends on when your Lemmy server/instance first discovered it. In other words, I don't believe a Lemmy server will show posts from a community on another server from before someone searched for "[email protected]" from your Lemmy instance for the first time.
I think. I'm no Lemmy expert.

Try https://midwest.social/c/lotrmemes and you should see content.
