This is just the latest trend of shitpost, I mean we had beans, we had Beef Stroganoff, and now people are posting Jemes, each time people say they are fed up with it after a couple days. This too shall pass.
Because new people are hopping on the bandwagon late so instead of the shit lasting a couple of days it becomes over a week of shit
Yep it’s the low-effort AI generated stuff that’s the problem. Some people just… aren’t funny, sorry 😅
Same thing happens in the communities for AI images. Some user will make a picture of a clever idea, but then other users copy the idea and beat the dead horse.
I don’t get it. They literally have the tools to make images of any idea, and they choose to use it to make somebody else’s idea over and over.
Many people are insanely uncreative and rather dim.
And want to be part of something, even if it’s obnoxious.
Welcome to the vast majority of teenage and young-adult social settings …
Sadly. I will ever understand the mindset of taking joy from bandwagoning. “yay, I’m doing something completely and utterly unoriginal for the 10000th time, wooo!”
I’d fucking die of boredom.
What exactly do you think a meme is?
Depends - sometimes you see a concept that you think you can improve on. Or maybe you read about their workflow how they did the image, learn something new and want to add your own spin. I don’t think, that’s a problem per se, as art is often iterating and innovating and that this is the root of creativity.
The problem is more when everyone does it and the whole community gets flooded with the same image concepts/jokes. In this case, the AI communities may get hit even worse in this regard, as it’s very easy to generate images and there’s less skill needed than if you had to draw/photoshop/… the whole meme all by yourself, which means it’s easier to enter the dead-horse-beating.
Also, most new Reddit refugees at this point probably haven’t internalized that there’s no system-wide karma here, and karma-whoring is entirely pointless in the context of the fediverse.
I’m sure some people left reddit when Javert memes were the hot item. This is good for Lemmy.
Did you say piss is the next meme? Alright, well, I’ll do what I can
I mean I’m pretty sure he agrees “this too shall piss” cause we all know it always comes down to piss.
you have to set it to the base setting
so that it’s based
Gotta say, jeansposting is my least favorite lemmy trend so far
It’s very Reddit feeling that’s for sure
Lemmy is basically reddit. It’s not any better than reddit was, it doesn’t have some enlightened users etc. It’s par for the course.
Moooom! Someone is wrong on the internet.
This is the Reddit replacement website. Everyone here probably came from Reddit. What do you expect?
The tankies and the Linux trans femboys who were here before us would disagree. But the mass influx cannot be ignored.
Bean posting was just a decades old rehash of a trend. It’s really not much better.
At least with Stroganoff, it had a funny origin(Google Opinion Survey asking if you want “important updates about Beef Stroganoff”).
Most of these are just “hrrr drrr this is dumb so let’s trend it”.
It was funny about 3 times.
People join a shitpost group and are mad all the posts are shitposts
I’m mad it’s all ai shitposts. Shits unsettling.
I was going to write this in one of the many many boring posts, but didn’t want to make it more popular. I understand trend and too much time on their hands but deploying AI to spam same thing like this just gets boring after a few examples. Move on
I enjoyed the first few but yeah once the AI - generated stuff came along it lost its charm for me.
You just have to let these things burn themselves out like an oil fire.
Class B fires can be handled by either AFFF or Potassium Bicarbonate.
Have you or a loved one been exposed to AFFF? You may be entitled to money damages!
That thing’s not coming to help us. It’s just us, the jeans, and god as our witness.
The ai-generated images are too low effort and too easy to produce.
I mean that was definitely my complaint. Dude. You want a denim keyboard make it happen, this weird low effort crap mangled generated image crap ain’t it.
Keep image generation for porn. Leave my shitposts real.
I… don’t care…?
Such is the nature of the internet. It’ll run itself out soon and become established lore. Beans and beef stroganoff went through that progression too.
What is this karma of which you speak?
It’s on 8chan
Pff I’m on 9chan
I thought they had to skip 9chan due to the way old software checks chan versions.
Yeah old browsers identify it as 95chan or 98chan based on the chan-agent string passed in the http protocol. I’m upgrading to 11chan so I can get chan365 and OneChan.
OniiChan all the way.
No no, they’re awesome. Every one a masterpiece of modern comedic ingenuity. I mean, picking a random noun, then typing “randomnoun but it’s jeans” into a shitty AI image generator, then doing it again a dozen times? Fucking genius.
Maybe I’m just old and grumpy, but this reminds me of Reddit’s obsession with rage comics - except those were higher effort, incredibly. Maybe we can go back to the stroganoff? How about something with dead babies next? Bring the terrible Gërman Fïsh Mëmë back? Knock-knock jokes? Maybe people literally stepping on rakes over and over, as seeing the 700th jouch meme only feels like it?
Dead Germán baby fish knock knock jokes? Sounds fun and annoying. Let’s do it!
Thank you.
Too bad the lemmy upvote is jeans colored
RemindMe! 8h - make Jemmy
Not sure if lecture about quality on shitpost is itself shitpost…
I’m le here to insult you mozzer
in french that would be ‘la mère de Mr_Blott’
mère de = merde = le poop/ la kaka
You mozzer ies shit!
