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.

Dorsey actually left BlueSky when he was unable to convince the board to not adopt moderation tools on the platform.
Yeah Dorsey is a piece of shit l, but he’d be leagues better than what we actually have in corporate leadership and governance at Bluesky — they see Bluesky as a “crypto-first” freeze peach platform and are frequently annoyed by the amount of progressives, leftists, socialists, and anarchists on the service.
Dorsey is all those things you just observed about current leadership, and also wanted less moderation capabilities than they do. He wanted Bluesky to be even less moderated than Twitter.
And in spite of the attitudes of the current Blue sky leadership, their moderation tools are pretty decent. Blocking a user there works better than it does in ActivityPub platforms. The blocked user can't see your profile or posts, at all. Over here a blocked user can still be out replying to everything you post, for all your followers to see. And you can mute/hide replies to your posts on Bluesky, so the rest of the people in the conversation doesn't see it unless they actively click to show it.
