I like to follow communities to stay updated with news, articles, events and discussions but something that ends up happening with most communities is that they end up being overflowed with memes, while they are fun they can also overshadow other posts and make other valuable information easy to miss. I understand that splitting a community is not always desired but I wanted to see what do other users think? I'm new to fediverse so I'm unsure if there are flairs to filter posts in the communities.

in broader strokes than have already been addressed: beyond quality and content, !humor@beehaw.org isn't super active as is. i see that as a good barometer of people not needing more than one or two dedicated places for memes from us specifically—and i do think Lemmy as a whole has a lot of meme communities already that we'd just be duplicating the scope of needlessly.
