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.

- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

AmazonBasics is just dupes of popular products. They see what sells the best on their website, copy them, and sell them for a slightly lower price.
meh. everything is "duped" from something else. https://youtu.be/bH1akL3SZiA
if you want to pay extra money to buy the "real" product from the actual brand's website to avoid giving amazon any money, then go ahead. i'll buy the cheaper thing that works just as well
Yeah, I mean dupes exist for a reason, because it works. Amazon has done far worse things to dislike them for.
When did we stop calling these "clones" and start calling them "dupes"? I guess I'm not up to date on my lingo.
Calling them "dupes" is the lingo used in fashion and makeup, idk about elsewhere. I think the distinction is that a dupe is a knockoff instead of a counterfeit.
