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!

Absolutely no memes please. Right now, r/games is easily the subreddit that I miss the most, and it's because it was entirely news and discussion focused. I sincerely hope I can turn to this community for most of my gaming news, and don't want to see an influx of memes.

100% agreed. There was r/gaming for the memes side of things and that place was usually a pretty terrible community (partially because it was a main subreddit. I’d rather have a discussion focused place here.
