"I read what you wrote as a standalone comment instead of as a reply so I ignored all context"
...okay
If the person I replied to was correct in saying that 99% of Lemmy is memes and I have memes blocked, that would mean I am only seeing 1% of posts when I browse. I am saying that if that was true, I would run out of posts quite quickly and that has not been my experience at all. I'd wager it's much closer to 50% memes than 99%
