Because the people who left reddit for lemmy are the people who left digg for reddit, mostly. So old Internet people. Hence old memes.
Edit: my phone decided digg should be high. IDK.
I was on reddit before I was on digg, but yeah. My migration was reddit > digg > reddit > lemmy
I'll take some recycled old memes over the groupthink spam reddit has become. If I never see another buy GME apes strong post again I'll die happy.
