Please don't participate in drama or arguments, don't attack individuals or groups, and don't share personal information. Remember to follow both Reddiquette and Reddit Content Policy. Participating in or advocating for brigading or Reddit-wide chain posts will result in an immediate ban. [Detailed Rules](https://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/wiki/rules/rule-1/)

Try r/MinecraftMemes if you want to post or consume meme content in a Minecraft context. Memes may feature in your post provided that they are not the primary focus. For example, sharing a redstone display by having it show a rick roll would be acceptable. [Detailed Rules](https://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/wiki/rules/rule-3/)
  4. Don’t post images of text
    If the main point of your image or video relies on text or numbers that it contains, please post it as text instead; non-text content may be embedded or linked within it if necessary.
