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.
- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca
- Merkitse K18-sisältö tarpeen mukaan

I use lemmy.
I use google.
Occasionally I use bing when I want to pirate, or find porn.
I can't think of any other search engines. Google killed them all.
I miss Ask Jeeves.
I use Kagi which is pretty sweet
Is that the one you have to pay for, or is that the one you have to self host?
Because if it's either of those, hard pass.
wdym the one you have to selfhost, you mean SearXNG, you dont have to selfhost that there are hundreds of public instances
The former.
At least use duck duck go. Even if only for the lack of Google summaries and cards.
That's just Bing with extra steps.
Bing but anonymised and affiliate link revenue doesn’t go to Epstein Island Bill Gates.
But hopefully without the tracking nonsense Microsoft will put into bing….
