    Life (Lemmy?) Pro Tip: The search works on alt text, so if you put good alt text on your post, in addition to being an ally for the visually impaired, it also makes it easier to search for specific memes later.

      Oh wow, that’s so neat. So many times I’ve tried to look for some meme but since the post titles are mostly irrelevant, it’s so hard to find the right one

        Yep, same. Before alt text was added, I used to sprinkle certain keywords in the the post body (I usually add some commentary with my memes) so I could find them later. Now I just add good alt text when I think of it, and that seems to do the trick.

    when you tile your meme to avoid it getting lost fully in case of partial file corruption

    When you reply for posterity in case OP deletes.
