The rules are against them but this has a lot of up votes so I'll let it slide.
I won't lose sleep about one or two but don't personally don't want to see them dominate the community. There are enough "haha, meme" communities without turning this into one. This community is to help folk in their journey to de-googling which is a difficult and challenging process. It isn't anti-google. Hating google is unproductive and solves nothing, but actively moving away from a company with so little respect for privacy is fantastic.
I don't see how this meme helps folk to transition away, so feels real low value to me.
I highly appreciate this policy and wish more Lemmy and Piefed communities had it!
