Edit: the results are in!
Hey all!
Since Lemmy is a new platform with new communities. We as the c/Games community have to decide what we want to be.
The last days I saw several posts with (low) effort memes. Some seem to enjoy it, some report it because they want a more serious discussion on here.
Therefore, I would like to ask you for your opinion: What should happen to memes on this community?
Please take a moment to fill in the poll. It will close on Monday.

Also feel free to discuss it in the comments!
The issue I have with memes is that you end up with the same low effort meme posts:
"does anyone remember this forgotten gem? (image of best selling game)"
"When your custom character is in a cutscene"
"You're 12 again, school is over and you're about to play (massively popular game)"
Etc
I feel like maybe there should just be a gaming memes community. For that sort of content.
The problem is memes are really low effort. So it will drown out all other types of content.
