I feel there is a disproportionate amount of people on Lemmy for memes vs actual genuine discussions on hot topics.

Curious also if there is perhaps a solution to this?

    A lot of the responses are offering an all or none response. The issue isn’t OP wants to block all memes posts, they just don’t want to see them as often.

    This is an algorithm/fedi issue I suspect. It would require curation.

    Since fedi isn’t really about that, the only option is to downvote.

    Downvote shitty memes.

      Scaled sort comes with next lemmy release. Like hot but takes community activity into account so smaller ones don’t get buried.
