Can a plain text post be a meme?

I suppose someone could post the Bee Movie script and it would count, so yeah?

... Anyone know if Lemmy has a text post limit?

EDIT: I just noticed this is the shitpost community, not the memes one. I'm still not deleting my comment.

My guy, internet memes used to come in all sorts of forms. This whole "impact font on an image background" came slightly later, and exploded into more mainstream with the "advice animals" memes.

Desu, so I herd u liek mudkips, the game... Has Anyone Really Been Far Even as Decided to Use Even Go Want to do Look More Like?

Youngins! Get off my digital lawn!

Alternatively, "normies get out! REEEEEEE!"

And if you go with the dictionary definition of meme, it's just a kind of virally spreading idea.

I lost the game :(

iirc the limit for the post body is about 50k characters

Also, I just checked and 200 characters seems to be the limit on post titles. My inner troll is disappointed.

We used to download plain HTML and CSS over dialup. Now we won't even read something that doesn't come with up to a megabyte of colorful background.

Post this again as plain text to verify your experiment

Edit

It's true!

You have wasted my time, but now I've wasted yours!

If this was a plain text post, it would be even more plain 😑

[–] orcrist@lemm.ee 6 points 1 month ago

I read more plain text posts than I do look at images, because sometimes there's a delay with the internet and the images take several seconds to load.

[–] DarkCloud@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

No, if it was longer than a couple of paragraphs I wouldn't have read it.

[–] Etterra@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

The only thing I have to say is

BOTTOM TEXT

[–] Paradachshund@lemmy.today 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

This just in: pictures are enjoyable. More news at 11.

[–] x4740N@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

I want to test that but I don't think we can post plain text here

[–] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I wouldn't have read it because I can't read.
