Why is my home feed on lemmy and kbin filled with posts about beans? Where did this recent obsession come from?

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’m glad I’ve bean here from the start.
Yup or if you really got in early-ish you can say I was there for the poop challenge.
It’s been a wild ride so far.
This is the best way to describe it and I’m 100% here for it
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.
because we’re taking the internet back to 2003 and that includes omg teh random posts being funny again *holds up spork*
I’m fine with it as long as we move on quickly. The in-jokes get a chuckle out of me for a few days, and it helps build the community feeling. Now if it lingers for months, it’s gonna get real stale, but that didn’t happen with the no poop stuff so I’m hopeful.
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.
The Lemmy front page algorithm still isn’t very good. Which results in a lot of shit post quality posts jumping to the top of the “hot” sorting.
That’s my favorite part of this site. Every time I open it I’m flooded by the shitwitching hour.
I love it as well. It’s great to see the insanity before I switch to my subscribed feed lol. People complaining just need to learn how to manage their feed and enjoy the beans.
If I wasn’t wrinkly and old I would shut down lemmy with a naked pic holding a can of beans.
Do it, you coward
I am! I just applied for my first principal job and I would hate my wrinkled ass with a can of beans kept me from it.
So you’ll do it after you get the job. Makes sense. Good luck!
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
Why am I not getting beans :(
'Cause with all the new traffic, Lemmy’s alive and full of beans!
It started here
I love meme archeologists
That’s a little like saying the story of Noah’s Ark was the original flood myth. This meme’s bean around for a while.
