Are they though? I realised a couple of weeks ago that meme culture seems to have died. Obviously not to zero, we still see them, but there seemed to be two meme times - the advice animals time of around 2014, and another time since, but they don't seem popular now

They're completely unrecognisable as memes since they increasingly don't use exploitables, but they're still out there. r/memes is very much around and well, if you want to see what's currently a thing sort by top of this year/month/week

This is how I know you're out of touch.

The kids and their memes are alive and well, you just don't know where they are and what that looks like.

The kids are memeing heavily with AI. I don't understand it, but then again, my parents wouldn't have understood rage comics or other memes from back in the day.

Really not sure what GP is referring to - lots of humor still going around - but I can probably guess.
