From that perspective you’re correct. I suppose it depends on what you want from funny. This is basically just a joke with a window dressing, does this also fit in jokes? The problem r/funny had, that looks like is repeating itself here, is that these are super low effort so they flood the community and drown out the other content. That’s why it makes sense to put these sorts of things in their own community.
I see where you’re coming from. I think as the fediverse grows it will naturally start to specialize more like you describe reddit having done in the past.

In this case the community is “funny” so posting funny lines from comedians seems pretty on topic to me, am I missing something?
