>>13035939

Ya well at least you didn't make a website based around them...

https://www.memeatlas.com/pepes.html

I spent like 300 hours on this thing

>>13035946
good call, your life could absolutely suck more dicc

if it makes you feel any better, i have been with around 70 girls, not including prosties, sex is overrated, just try to get rich with eth and if you really want to get laid, work towards finding a similar chick, if she is also a virgin thats amazing, but if not, try to find someone who is also not that experienced, good luck anon, and dont buy link or prosties

>>13036036
it's not bad frend. why not put some ads on there and make a little money?

>>13036064

Eh, trying out the whole BAT thing. But either way it costs me basically nothing to host and I don't want to fill the screen space with ads or track people anyways. So this is it.

>>13036064

But thanks, fren. I appreciate the kind words.

>>13036103
i don't think anyone will use brave frend. most normies just use chrome so for BAT to take off there needs to be a chrome add on. then you could put a link to the add on in your site and people could download it by just clicking a button. normies might do that. but they wont ever install a completely different browser just to support you.

>>13035939
Of course not, the frogs didn't exist then.

>>13036036
bookmarked....thanks!

>>13036036
I like it fren i just bookmarked

>>13036145
just like they didn't install firefox when everyone got tired of microsofts shit?

a 55 year old tech-illiterate carpenter told me a few days ago he uses brave because he googled "alternatives web browsers"

>>13035939
same except I only text post

>>13036145

You're probably right. But, gotta have a little skin in the game either way. Plus I just like maymays so it's ok if they dont support it. Memes are for everyone.

>>13036175
Using Google to get away from Google. The irony is not lost on me. It'd be funny of Google bought Brave.

frogposters are cancer

>>13035939
Being in my mid 20's with two successful startups in my back pocket mocking people who post little green frogs on a chinkerboard is exactly what I thought I would be doing 10 years ago

>>13036192

From a regulatory perspective it would appear that they can't as that's just one more drop in the anti-trust bucket. They're already on the hot seat from the senate hearing last week and regulators are just looking for a reason to break them up. But idk, not a politician.

>>13036167
>>13036157
thanks frens

>>13035939
just imagine if you knew though...

>>13036244
That's basically my face every day.

>>13036036
Saved some of them, thanks

>>13036036
absolutely based & bookmarked

>>13036264
Save them all fren. These aren't my memes, I just put them in one spot.

>>13036292
Thanks based anon

>>13035939
really, it was for me
this is the dream, anon! we're living the dream!

>>13036373

Do you mind if I add this meme to the site? I plan to update every 10(ish) days.

>>13036103
no one outside of bag holders and other weirdos use brave
point and case it still cant run youtube without crashing, desktop or phone app

>>13036421

Hmm. What version are you running? Youtube has been stable for me on Brave for about a year on both mobile and desktop. The only hangup I've had recently is that youtube is starting to get pushy with tracking to make sure you're seeing their ads (which I don't because of the ad blockers but it throws up a prompt anyways). And I have issues with playlists going to the next video when my screen is off on mobile. Honestly I just want a legit youtube alternative to play music. But the record co's will sue anyone off the face of the earth that try to do that.


But idk anon, maybe uninstall and wait a year or two for a more stable version. its only v0.64 right now. I'd wait until at least v1 if you don't want to be a beta tester.

>>13036421

Either way this is gross.

>>13036461
>what versions
never used brave, but if i did run it, it would be the shitty version

would be funny as shit if google found a reason to ban brave browser, i can see some shit happening but probably not because brave will never make a dent in googles revenue, also i pay monthly for youtube premium, and im gay

>>13036036
The fact that you have done anything productive puts you ahead of most here

>>13036036
What? Literally nothing wrong with it. I put in thousand hours into video gsmes without nothing to show for it.

>>13036510

Why so angry fren? Its just a browser. But just the fact that you think that Google could actually ban Brave just goes to show how much of a problem Google has become. I really don't care what browser you use, as long as it not chrome. Same for email as well (protonmail is good).

Just remember that Google is made up of people, and these people are able to cross-examine every detail of your life and predict probabilistically what you're going to do even before you do it. No one should have that much power.

>>13036569

Well I bet your strategizing skills are pretty sharp and your hand eye coordination is good too.

>>13036036
That's pretty lit senpai, some categories like sad happy angry etc would take it to the next level. Snap some none intrusive ads and BAT on it.

>>13036597
>Just remember that Google is made up of people
DUDE BLAZE IT
i have nothing to hide, and the things i do hide are not shared with any medium they have, you paranoid fucky, i was being a tad waggish on the banning thing, just installed 100bats

>>13036659

We all have nothing to hide until we do. Be careful. Glad to hear you've decoupled from Google though.

>tfw using chrome

I'd switch but then I'd lose all my comfy bookmarks. Using brave on mobile though, it's pretty good

>>13036768

Thanks fren. I try.

>>13036806
This. Can you import the bookmarks? I'd rather not lose 5 years of bookmarks.

>>13036806

The porting over of passwords and bookmarks wasn't that difficult because chromium is the backend for both Chrome and Brave. I bet google wishes they could go back to 2008 and not made chrome OSS. They played themselves.

>>13036036
Based but holy shit 300 hours really? Could make this site in a day

>>13036843

Ya I'm pretty bad at webdev. It doesn't even have any js.

>>13035939
Discover swinging, changes everything..

>>13036843

And I should mention that most of that was just cleaning the data. Not actually building the site. It really not a complicated site at all.

>>13036036
could at least put your btc eth monero keys there for coffee donations, nothing wrong with that.

Do you have an ARK address?

>>13036036
this gave me a hearty kek
thanks for all your effort anon

>>13037256

Thanks anon. Just in case anyone care's here's why I made this particular style of site. This is /biz/ after all:

So from a visual linguistics standpoint meme's are the language of the internet. They have semantic meaning depending on the context and are a viable way of expressing intent and emotion where text would either take too long or be to complex to condense into a single post. So I started looking around and saw that when it comes to maymay's there's only three "repo's" (for lack of a better term) where users can find them:

knowyourmeme.com
me.me
warosu.org

I looked up the Alexa stats on these sits and figured that people really weren't going there to learn about the origins of memes or to look at past threads. They wanted the images. So I figured I'd just collect one's that could be considered 'universal' in the sense that any person from any culture could use them to express their intents or feelings and put them in one place.

Also I'm sick of living under Google's thumb so I thought it would be cool to make a site that might produce a lot of traffic but that had nothing to do with AdMob or Google analytics whatsoever. But that remains to be seen. Either way glad I could help. These aren't my memes, their ours. So it would be scummy of me to put ads and trackers on the site anyway.

> thanks for reading my blog

>>13037312
Very apt analysis.

>>13037267
>>13037271

True. But this is also a trial run for the Brave browser for me personally. I want to see if that's actually a viable way of monetizing a site. I don't want to be in Bezo's cage for the rest of my life. Thanks though.

>>13037271
Sorry, I don't.

>>13037280
That's the dream fren. Thank you for liking it.

>>13037312
>https://www.memeatlas.com/pepes.html
would be nice to have a link on subpages to get back to your index.html since sometimes they're opened in new tabs so can't use the browsers return.

>>13035939
I love you OP

>>13037362

Ya I definitely have to update that. I also have a couple of broken links but it will take me about a week to get to it. But I'm shooting for weekly updates every thurs so we can have the freshest meme's to post on the weekends.

Looking back I should have made the target the current page but it will be updated. Thanks for the feedback.

>>13035939
What colour frogs were you expecting to be posting?

>>13037121
Cleaning the data?

>>13037405
A big project for you is to make it searchable. Perhaps just steal the keywords from those other sites you mentioned and associate them accordingly.

>>13036817
I was able to import my bookmarks from firefox in an instant

>>13037450
...Also will be donating some BAT to memeatlas goy when I get home lmoa

>>13037421

For about a year I just grabbed every meme I saw. Ended up with a lot of trash and stuff that would have been been way too specific. So I spent a lot of time figuring out what the final index should be. I probably put way to much thought into it but eh, it was fun.

>>13037422
Ya that's definitely on the to-do list too. I'd also like to use do a drag and drop image search using python on the backend (once again no tracking of course).

>>13037420
All kinds

>>13037312
>So from a visual linguistics standpoint meme's are the language of the internet. They have semantic meaning depending on the context and are a viable way of expressing intent and emotion where text would either take too long or be to complex to condense into a single post.
Sort of, but your site's cardinality doesn't reflect this at all. As an example, grugs don't necessarily have anything in common with each other besides the character and setting. There are happy grugs, sad grugs, frustrated grugs etc. The fact that it's a grug is a secondary, dependent property of the "intent and emotion" being portrayed.

Likewise, consider why "pepe" as a concept brings to mind a collection of trading cards, while "sad pepe" as a concept has a strong thematic cohesion and evokes a specific mood.

This isn't to say your categorization isn't useful but your justification doesn't fit it.

>>13037422
I think pagination and thumbnail-sized thumbnails are more important since they impede navigation

>>13037469
Ah. I hope you figure out a way to monetize it even if it's only a bit.

>>13037516

I figure if people like it enough they'll donate BAT through the browser. If not then that's ok too. I just wanted to make a fun site for me and my frens :)

>>13035939
>>13036036
You are okay mens I kind of know how you feel.
At least you didn't do evil shit like killing people or putting your family and friends in danger like the mosque shooter, now the muslim brotherhood will hunt down and eliminate his whole family and friends because that's how they roll, I lived in one of their (one of the more civilized, still savage) countries, very vengeful people, not like the white trash that abolished the death sentence, like it should be in such cases actually, he is a heavily idiotic person for doing some such thing.
Just stay strong please and maybe you will be lucky and find your happiness eventually.

>>13037312
>>13037502
This type of 9gag-like itemization and cultural forensics on 4chan memes, shoehorning them to Dawkins' writings is a big reason why this site went to shit.

tldr fuck pepe and the 'creative think-tanks' who force their sterlie, flavorless, mass-produced malignancy.

Still waiting on the Brave servers to update but thanks friend. Enjoy!

>>13037798
haha nice

>>13037814
Ya on my part. I don't claim ownership of these maymay's. I'm kinda hoping this will be the wikipedia of meme's if that makes sense. But I'd need to refine my classification system before that happens. I'm an amateur linguist so this is ultimately a personal project to me. Although I have no idea what the grammar is/should be yet.

Delete this

>>13036036
Not a bad idea. Saved a lot of rare Pepes thanks fren

>>13037777

QUADS OF LUCK

>>13037864

Save em all. Although this site is already paid for this year so its not going anywhere though. You can think of it as the cloud for memes for when you're phone posting.

>>13035939
Here u go fren

>>13037870
>>13037878

See what I did there?

> one of us

>>13037846
I think you might be on to something.
I used to have a large portfolio of reaction images and memes, but i got a new computer and never bothered to transfer the portfolio, since then i make a google search for an image (often it is not even a specific image i am after e.g. "depressed guy with down-sydrome" and then take the best image i can find for that particular context i want to use it in).

If Your MemeAtlas became more organized, and had a larger spread - like brainlet images etc. I think a lot of people would use such a site for an image/meme source.

>>13036036
I’ll give you BAT for this bro

audible kek

>>13037936

Exactly. I found myself doing the same thing so that was the initial inspiration for the site. And once again not trying to shill (jannies pls no) but you'll find the brainlets under

www.memeatlas.com/brainlets.html

I have: BAT, bobos, brainlets, boomers, grugs, misc, pepes, wojaks and zoomer memes.

I'll be updating and improving the site over the next couple of weeks but I just wanted to get this thing live.

>>13037942
Thank you fren. Glad you like it.

>>13037990

And honestly I'm hoping that with everything being in one place we'll get a bunch more awesome memes because there's a lot of inspiration to draw from when you can just scroll. But idk.

>>13036036
Now this guy knows how to early adopt. Sent you 1bat just because you are clever enough to get in early.

>>13036036
Btw you are probably going to be a millionaire if you maintain the site and update it. Seriously man...tips for meme folder arrangement. Very smart. Keep your business in order and run with it. Advertise occasionally but don't be too pushy. You can make it with this...

>>13038039
>>13038025

Thank you. And I really do want to see this grow organically. Outside of mentioning it on here a couple of times and hanging around crypto-twitter I don't plan on doing any overt ads. Well I might do 4chan if the price is right but that will be it.

I figure that if the site and content are good enough people will find it on their own and let their friends know too. Metcalfe's Law and all that jazz. If not than that's that. But improvements and new memes are on the way!

Also I plan on donating a significant amount of the BAT I get to other creators. That's the only way to get the Brave ecosystem to grow. If I'm greedy and keep it all then I end up hurting myself too, so I have a strong interest in making sure that BAT scales properly as well. That's why I didn't put my affiliate link in for Brave at the bottom of the index page. This is more important than that. I wage anyways so I don't need the cash as much as I want to see Brave grow.

https://basicattentiontoken.org/token-economics-considering-token-velocity/

>>13036036
I wish you could customize how much BAT you want to tip, because I had to send 10 BAT six times, and then 5 BAT one time, and then 1 BAT four times

>>13038165

Geez fren, that's a ton of BAT. I'll pass it on! But if I had to guess it seems Brave did it that way as it easier to do automated batch settlements for everyone. Or maybe not, I really haven't had a chance to dig into the github yet. I think that's also why they settle once a month so they don't overload the eth network like crypto kitties did. I don't know if that's still on issue or not so I'm not trying to fud anything. There's a lot of other people around here that can answer that with authority.

> based and greenpilled amirite?

>>13038454
They have their merits too though. If I recall correctly there was a computer scientist who earned his PhD because he came up with the equation of how to imitate shadows in vidya using non-euclidean geometry. Plus 'mind-muscle memory' is also a thing. That's why pilots use flight sims. And Netflix is good for unwinding. I guess its just important to try and find balance in everything you do.


There was a brilliant mathematician named Alexander Grothendieck who did pure mathematics 9 hours a day for 10 years straight and revolutionized the entire field. At the end of it all he really had to say was that his soul had suffered during that time (or something like that). So I just try to keep that in mind.
