As you see from the screenshot, internet funeral is now featured on the first page of lemmy.world communities. I just wanna say thanks to anyone who have contributed to this community, weather posing or commenting. I never thought in a tech focused instance, that a sub as weird as mine would be this popular. I doubt this would last for long, but I appreciate the support. I will keep posting as long as I can.

Cheers. (γ₯ΰΉ‘β€’α΄—β€’ΰΉ‘)γ₯β™‘

I like it. It's hard to describe, but it feels like absurdist GenZ humor dished up in a way that's familiar to those of us who grew up on lolcats and rage comics. You have successfully bridged a generational gap with memes.

Keep on keepin on.

Yeah, I think that's a good way to describe it. Though I like Internet Funeral stuff best when it's not so much humour but leaning into the absurdist/surrealist/somber tone more.

Regardless, this has been one of my favourite communities.

When starting a new game, and I don't like the default name, I name it FUCKER.

I'm glad to see internet funeral thriving on Lemmy.

It was one of my favorite subreddits so I was disappointed when I migrated to Lemmy and there wasn't a similar community here. I was so excited when I saw this community while scrolling through All recently.

Thanks for all your work getting this community started!

The only non cringe humor-ish community I've come across on here, well done!
