    There are people on here that nitpick the format of the meme, insist that it should instead be posted on some other random instance because of the category and everything in between. I couldn’t care less what they think but there’s usually enough where they’ll report it regardless.

    On Lemmy you are much better off keeping the memes fairly tame on any of the major instances at least. If you know of an instance that ain’t like this let me know.

      ah yeah, I agree, the “Ackchyually” crowd is a lot more vocal here than in other places, I’ve noticed. My best guess is lemmy’s filled with a lot more tech enthusiasts, and a good portion of the more vocal ones among them have a hard time seeing the forest from the trees, and just gotta be heard nitpicking every little detail. I’m hoping that’s just temporary (and will change as the user count grows), because, again, I agree, it can get exhausting interacting with them.

      the best course of action I’ve found is to not interact with them at all - they, almost always, become time and sanity vampires, with all their focus on feeling right than having a conversation, and nothing’s gained after trying. advice for ignoring them beyond that: 🤷‍♂️
