Hey there! So all I’m seeing in this community are news articles concerning Canada. There are no explicit instructions mandating this in the rules section. Therefore, are Canada-related memes and shitposts allowed here?
I’m not a mod so I can’t speak to their intentions for the community but IMO the size isn’t there yet on Lemmy to separate topics to that extent. There’s a politics-oriented community canadapolitics@lemmy.ca yet there’s still plenty of threads about politics here.
We shouldn’t be spreading what little community we have too thin.
We don’t have specific rules on that yet, it’s on my list of things to do.
I’m good with giving it a try. I know that I’d like to encourage discussion posts and other types of content (so it’s not just news). It should be fine unless it gets too spammy
When it’s time for the new set of rules to come in, I’ll make a post to get feedback
Naaah nevermind… Posted one vid and got downvoted to oblivion lmao… Maybe I should stick to my habitat of !196@lemmy.blahaj.zone and !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world

Eyyy so I can post Justin Trudeau catboy videos here! Niceee
Edit: Bruh I just made a shitpost and it got downvoted to oblivion :(
For context, it was this vid.
I can see normie memes sprinkled into this community doing well. Satire does well and people are often not super serious in the comments.
This… is not a normie meme. Weirdly well animated, though.
Yeah, but not normie enough to get a 1:21 upvote downvote ratio?! Like come on… Is everyone in this community 80+ or something?
Are you shitting my post right now bud?
I am pro meme shitpost until such time as there’s enough people around to split out more defined communities.
Justin Trudeau catboy memes incoming
I mean…I wouldn’t say no?

Eh, win some, lose some. Was worth a shot
Yeah I suppose lol
