    The secret is to stop using Reddit, so you don’t know which posts are reposts.

    Sweetie I tried making original memes and feedback was controversial as fuck. so yea now I just copy paste. Mods always ask me to.claridh what my memes mean, ready to fucking ban me bc they think I’m probably a bunch of bad things even though I have like tens of thousands of comments on leftist content on Lemmy.

      All of them were bangers, the last one was quite odd/deep fried. So I think mods would be right to question that one. You cannot rely on a user checking your account before going “fuck this post”.

    The internet is awash with reposts from the same three or four sites. This doesn’t seem unusual, especially for a smaller platform.

      Those watermarks are so obnoxious. I wish people would turn that setting off if they’re going to save and share them; or at least crop it out. I guess it’s a pet peeve of mine, lol. It irritates me more than it should.

    Nothing inherently wrong with reposts from Reddit. It can’t be expected that a small community as Lemmy, would need to create OG content primarily.
