Because no one had time during the covid lockdown years to make new memes. Everyone was making bread, decluttering and buying new PJ's.
And now the economy is too expensive to pay for new memes.
Maybe I am mistaken, but aren’t “new memes” people reposting their twitter crap and hoping for better luck? The AI memes are getting pretty good, if those are what counts as new memes and what I think new memes are are actually older then idk.
Uh, Lemmy isn’t really big on memes (except over at c/Risa on startrek.website — their Star Trek meme game is on point!), so the old memes are partly satire for those of us that are older than memes and mostly make fun of them. With old memes. It’s complicated.
This isn’t really the community for that kind of question. You’d probably get better replies on NoStupidQuestions. That being said, ive definitely noticed the same thing. No real answer here, but it is a weird quirk with the Lemmy community. Stock photo memes? Seriously? Is this circa 2018 r/youdontsurf??
