No dedicated community/magazine for Fediverse memes?

Interestingly enough, I was thinking about it earlier today.

There is some potential for memes, especially with the latest dramas/debates on several topics, as well as the on-going feud with Reddit

Would you like to create it? I have a few ideas I could translate into memes

My best creation from a year ago: discuss.tchncs.de/post/1868051

I’ve started a new (streams) channel for Fediverse memes, but I thought Lemmy could be another, even better place to post them.

I’ve already posted two creations of mine there, One does not simply implement FEP-ef61 with very extensive explanations and What if I told you the Fediverse is not only Mastodon? with only one link to explain it. I’m still trying to find the right amount of explanation for an audience that shall be mostly on Mastodon.

Beyond that, I’ve got loads of ideas. But I don’t want to post more of them here than on (streams). So I’ll first have to define my way of posting them on (streams) to what will be a largely Mastodon audience in a way that satisfies Mastodon’s accessibility requirements the best. I hope to speed up my meme-posting rate then.

Interesting, how can I follow/comment on that stream from Lemmy? I tried searching for the link in the search bar but that didn’t work

It’s basically like a Hubzilla channel which, in turn, is somewhat like a Friendica account. Which, again, is very vagely like a Mastodon account.

To my best knowledge, you can’t follow individual accounts outside the Threadiverse on Lemmy.

In addition, (streams) has recently switched to decentralised IDs as per FEP-ef61. This could be the reason why Lemmy can’t find my (streams) channels, but it can find my Hubzilla channels: It doesn’t understand DIDs.

I see it’s not compatible with Lemmy 😅

We can create a community together if you want to

I really shouldn’t and meme communities can be a bit hectic but it is a bit niche so should be manageable and, having thought about it, I think it would work. So, yeah, do it!

To be honest I’m also hesitating as they might be quite hectic to mod. I might post tomorrow on !fedigrow@lemm.ee to see if other people would be interested, I guess it would need around 5 mods just to be sure

You and me to start, advertise for more. Should be fine. It is a niche meme community.

Memes can get viral very fast, 50 comments on the one I posted on !fediverselore@lemmy.ca , we would probably get a lot more on a dedicated meme community federated to the major instances

At this point you might as well start the community. Stick a post up asking for other Mods to help out.

I don’t think it’s wise to start a Lemmy community and then ask for other people to moderate it while being absent for weeks myself.

In case you haven’t read, I’m not primarily a Lemmy user. I’m mostly on Hubzilla and second-mostly on (streams). It may actually occur that I’m not on Lemmy for multiple weeks in a row.

Also, I don’t really want to take care of rules and that stuff.
