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.

It's why I think Lemmy has great potential. First and foremost, it's well-designed and the UI is very easy to use. There still needs to be a lot of work in terms of making it palatable and understandable to first-time users and newcomers. Because right now, it's a bit hard to grasp what exactly is going on at first. But once you get the hang of it, it can easily work as an improved reddit. I'm legitimately thinking of never going back to Reddit at this point. There's no reason to do so, especially when decentralized communities have much more potential to create more specific spaces with specific types of people.
Like, I was thinking that with a decentralized system, you could for example create communities exclusively for professionals in one area. Like, you could have a community that required professional credentials to create an account, for example legal or medical communities, and that way you could raise the expected level of discussion. But at the same time, you can create safe spaces for say, neurodivergent users, or ethnic, sexual, racial minorities in online discourse, and so on. This has so much freedom, I legitimately think this is the way to go.
