Why is my home feed nothing but beans?

Don’t question it, just enjoy it. You are now part of the greater Lemmy world. In five years you can break out the ‘I have been on Lemmy since the bean incident’ and all the originals will sound off with you while the new lemmings won’t get the inside joke.

You belong now.

I think it’s mostly, if not completely (at least on my end), coming from shitpost related communities.

I’m seeing all of my bean posts specifically come from lemmyshitposts.

Also random, but my city’s subreddit last year actually founded a bean club online and then had monthly IRL meet ups where they would bring bean cans to trade.

There was a post on Lemmy yesterday that said something like “Lemmy will upvote anything this is just a photo of a tin of beans”. .. and the shitposting started. :)

I’m sticking with ‘subscribed’ for a while

It has always bean like that. You are just noticing it now.

It started here

Don't worry. It's just lemmy establishing its lore. Soon the bean arc will be over, like the three-day-no-poop arc before it.

It’s weird how different these feeds are. I only have posts about people asking about these beans posts. But no beans posts themselves whatsoever.

You federated wrong. You're actually on Legume-ey.world

I'll see myself out.

it's the kbean.social special

because we're taking the internet back to 2003 and that includes omg teh random posts being funny again *holds up spork*

'Cause with all the new traffic, Lemmy's alive and full of beans!

So the need for a c/outoftheloop begins

Bean related memes have been around for a bit already in other corners of the internet. We've been graced with more bean memes. Enjoy!

Oh shit, are we having our first post-migration memestorm?

Are we ready? Do we have an OutOfTheLoop community already out here somewhere?

Why am I not getting beans :(

Bean

i unsubbed from shitpost temporarily lol

I haven't seen a single bean-related post. Perhaps you have not been minding your "block-all-memes" mandate. I hate memes and shitposts and block communities and posters that break through at every opportunity.

Just lucky

Bean there done that

History, my friend.

History.

beans.

I'm guessing it's a sign of the Reddit migration. r/beansinthings is 174k strong but you'll note the largest influx of subscribers was June 2019 to Feb 2020: https://social-rise.com/subreddit-analysis/Beansinthings

Coming to you live from Kbean!

Beans are an excellent source of vegetable protein and minerals such as iron, magnesium and zinc. They are rich in folic acid, an element associated with the reduction of such birth defects as Spina Bifida, and they also protect against heart disease. Beans are also a good source of non-lactic calcium.

I don't know, so is mine, I'm all for the random good time tho

Maybe m/EatCheapAndHealthy is leaking.

I just blocked shitpost and 196 communities, the feed is much better.

Don’t poopoo on beaning a Lemmy

I think you bought too many beans

It’s National Eat Beans Day https://nationaltoday.com/national-eat-beans-day/

The Universe is telling you to Eat More Beans!

Seriously. I went and played Diablo for like 2 hours and I come back and it's beans as far as the eye can see

Why did you subscribe to so much bean-related content? When one finger is pointing at someone else, you've got three more pointing right back at yourself.

We are all beans on this blessed day.

I dunno
