    You don’t strike me as being an influencer, but seeing brand jokes in a mostly brand-free space is a bit striking. Given your post rate, it would surprising for some not to have a brand. I wasn’t specifically pointing this at you.

      Thanks, and yeah that’s exactly it. I post a ton, and occasionally someone makes a meme that involves a product or something, but this one didn’t strike me as an ad. I figured you could sub in any energy drink, because the joke is that you still feel terrible and they’re not worth it. Energy drinks are trash.

      I also post about Star Trek a lot, which is an IP I love, and I’m not on their payroll either. Lol

          Lol, I don’t remember any reddit power users, so take your pick!

          I was very much a lurker on reddit and only started posting so much here to try to support Lemmy’s growth. I’d love to see it be a real competitor to corporate-owned social media.
