programmerhumor lemmy continuing the fine r/programmerhumor tradition of memes that are only tangentially related to technology and have dick all to do with programming posted by non programmers who want to hang out with the hackermen

I say we let them hang with us. They're a little confused, but they're adorable enough.

Also, talesfromtechsupport effectively became talesfromtech because just tech support is to small of a niche to sustain a sub with content. Likewise, if we banned all the not-strictly-programming humour, I don't know the community will thrive still. It might drive out both content and viewers, and while it's arguably correct, I don't think it's wise.

I'd rather have it be something vaguely resembling the type of humour programmers tend to have than a little walled-off box with a big sign "NERDS ONLY"
