    If someone could also explain why half the post titles have the word “rule” in them, that would also be helpful

      The 196 community has an (unenforced) rule that you must post every time you visit, so they’re posts that are following the rule.

      Disclosure: I don’t know the full lore and I’m only answering because nobody else has.

      My vague understanding is that this is unique to the ‘196’ community which has a community rule that every post must include the word “rule” in the title post. So it’s super common to see because it’s an active community. Beyond that I don’t really understand what the community is about as it seems to have a random variety of posts.

    about the beans: look for top all time
    After the wave of newcomers lowered lemmy started to have some “weekly” phases where other memes became the meta like the german pedalo or moths and many others.

    But as a moth fren i bring some moth memes back from time to time :)

    I was sick of seeing political stuff on the shitposting group so I started bombarding it with corn until it stopped. I had happened to have a bunch of corn pictures saved on my phone because I had flooded my friend’s discord with corn pictures just to goof on her.

    It spiraled into a glorious corn filled nightmare insanity, and as someone from Ohio, I appreciate that.

    I think the beans came up later because people like to play with themes.

    I’ve been on Lemmy for a whole day and I’ve literally never heard anybody referenced corn and beans
