Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.
- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca
- Merkitse K18-sisältö tarpeen mukaan

Who has 1meg internet? That wouldn't be usable as websites and apps would simply timeout trying to load. It probably would just be flagged as no internet by modern devices. Even DSL connections are much faster. It isn't uncommon to see something like 20/20.
symmetrical dsl? where?
1 meg up. Who? Lots of people. Perhaps the majority of people in the US have very low upstream bandwidth. That amount is through the local cable company. AT&T here offers much less upstream than the cable company does. If you don't live in a major population center you get slower internet. AT&T is supposed to be updating things around here finally. When I moved in here the best speed they could offer me was 3meg down 256 up. That was in 2022.
Oh and I should probably clarify for you that 256 is .25 meg.
