    Yeah. I agree that it’s bad to put the feature behind a paywall, but I also just wish it wasn’t a feature in the first place. Meme picture comments are attention grabbing and take up a lot of space. They can end up dominating the thread; making people just kind of skim over the text comments and just look at the highly prominent pictures, as though they are a kind of super-comment.

    So even though sometimes the images are great and funny / interesting / clever or whatever - I think it can degrade the conversation on the platform. I’m at least thankful that not many people are using them on lemmy; currently.
