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

Can you say more about never signing into a user account? I'm not sure I'm making the connection here.
Sorry I should have mentioned an "online account".
I have read many stories of people getting into trouble because they thought a VPN would protect their identity, and got caught because they signed into their online account which would be easily traceable.
Oh I got you. That makes sense.
The most illegal thing I do online is make fun of my kids with an account they know so I'm probably good. Though I do hate all the privacy invasion and do reasonable efforts for me to prevent like uBlock and Firefox and so on.
With the VPN it stops websites from knowing who you are. They don't have an email, name, or real IP to track.
Got it, thank you!
