My guy, internet memes used to come in all sorts of forms. This whole "impact font on an image background" came slightly later, and exploded into more mainstream with the "advice animals" memes.
Desu, so I herd u liek mudkips, the game... Has Anyone Really Been Far Even as Decided to Use Even Go Want to do Look More Like?
Youngins! Get off my digital lawn!
Alternatively, "normies get out! REEEEEEE!"
And if you go with the dictionary definition of meme, it's just a kind of virally spreading idea.
Can a plain text post be a meme?
I suppose someone could post the Bee Movie script and it would count, so yeah?
... Anyone know if Lemmy has a text post limit?
EDIT: I just noticed this is the shitpost community, not the memes one. I'm still not deleting my comment.

I lost the game :(
iirc the limit for the post body is about 50k characters
Also, I just checked and 200 characters seems to be the limit on post titles. My inner troll is disappointed.
We used to download plain HTML and CSS over dialup. Now we won't even read something that doesn't come with up to a megabyte of colorful background.
Post this again as plain text to verify your experiment
Edit
It's true!
You have wasted my time, but now I've wasted yours!
If this was a plain text post, it would be even more plain 😑
No, if it was longer than a couple of paragraphs I wouldn't have read it.
The only thing I have to say is
BOTTOM TEXT
This just in: pictures are enjoyable. More news at 11.
I wouldn't have read it because I can't read.
I want to test that but I don't think we can post plain text here
