How do I cope with the Steam Community? (lemmus.org)

I go to Steam regularly to play my games, usually posting simple screenshots of my game sessions. But when I go to the communities I see Internet videos, GIFs, memes, and memetic everything and it's not really my thing. I even posted on Lemmy that I didn't like memes in general and what do they post on here? It feels like people are having fun by abusing their humanity in the process or like a Reddit subreddit, and I specifically came to Lemmy on the Fediverse to avoid all that. They post things that I'm uncomfortable with and typically I don't have fun by posting Internet memes for a living...that's just weird.

Does anyone agree or does everyone here do it anyway?

It's also weird to think that you either have to cope with a community - or that the community must change because of your tastes. Just don't take part in the community - or join a different one or start your own community that's more to your speed. People enjoy different things, we don't all have to take part, and we can create our own groups
