A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

It feels so wrong that this is still a problem for so many around the world.
In Finland, completely unlimited data is the standard.
My biggest gripe with my internet connection at home is that I have to upgrade to the 20€/m plan to get 200m upload, because while the 10€/m plan comes with 300m down, it "only" has 50 up, making it quite slow to grab a few gigs of media files off my home server from outside my wifi. The building has fiber, there is NO REASON for the connection to be asymmetric!
But that feels like such a small problem compared to having my use of the internet rationed like it's some limited resource we have to be careful "consuming".
Reading about how the ISPs of the US literally just took money from the federal government, earmarked for internet infrastructure and literally did nothing with it, is infuriating!
Just admit it's for uploading moe to lemmy :p
shhh
