Star Wars Memes

Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.

==========

Other universes to visit:

!lotrmemes@midwest.social

!tenforward@lemmy.world

Separatist systems:

!prequelmemes@lemmy.world

Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):

!star_wars@lemmy.world

!starwars@lemmy.ml

!starwarstelevision@lemmy.world

==========

IMPORTANT

Please do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta

==========

Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.

The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:

  1. This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.

  2. We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.

  3. As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!

  4. Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.

  5. Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).

  6. Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.

  7. Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.

I was active on Reddit for well over a decade. Even helped mod a couple of small communities at various points. I also loved Apollo and was an early beta tester for that app. For me, Apollo was Reddit. It was the only Reddit client I used in recent years and I miss Apollo as much as I miss Reddit itself.

I don’t see myself going back to Reddit. Lemmy has been great and has quickly become very “Reddit-like” for me, but with the vibe of what the internet was back in the early 2000s. I am enjoying the communities that are forming on her.

I’m also very fond of the concept of the Fediverse as a whole. Corporate social media has failed again and again, so I want to move away from it as much as possible.

I have an 11 year Reddit account, and recently got banned for posting about how Nazi's shouldn't be around anymore.

Reddit has been slowly turning to shit, and Spez befriending Musk is a pretty big indicator that its going to keep going that way.

Is this the dark or light side?

[–] Exusia@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

It is up to us to make it the place we want to be!

Still trying to figure this out. Need a decent Apollo style app to fully move in. I’m so done with Reddit. I already nuked the content they let me and deleted a few accounts. Definitely phasing out.

Click Communities. Subscribe to a bunch. Click on your name and go to settings. Set Type to Subscribed, this defaults your home screen to show only posts from subscribed communities. Also make sure the Theme is litely or litely-red.

Redditor for 14 years. Won't be a redditor for 15 years. Just found Lemmy.world and also checking out one or two other alternatives.

[–] laverabe@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

same here. I joined reddit about the same time you did, and had been on it ever since until the recent exodus.

Reddit is done, it might linger on for a few more years, but it is clearly on the path to becoming Digg 2.0 .

No one ever mentions the Narwhal users:(

[–] ShadyGrove@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Because they only bacon at midnight.

[–] slinky317@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

That's something I'd rather not bring back please
