I imagine there's some amount of conditioning (for lack of a better word), and some amount of how well the meme author annotated it. Mostly just postulating, with a small amount of experience having been an assistant to a blind person for a short stint. But I imagine you're onto something, that as people who experience memes visually, we'd find the meme's description less funny than someone who relied on that description to experience the comedic effect of the meme; they might just use their imagination to fill in the gaps more naturally than we do. But there are of course limits to what details we can divine from our imagination, so I imagine there's a lot of memes where blind people are left contextless unfortunately.

I don't know that everyone has one of these. But the professor I assisted for that aforementioned short stint also had a special braille printer, of course. I believe these printers have since advanced to the point of being able to render photos in a sort of limited fashion where the paper is indented to contour to lines. I believe there are also tactile tablets now for the visually disabled.

We should start a club.

In the meantime, I just use an image blocker extension when I encounter those articles.

My mobile browser (Cromite on Android, Chromium fork) also has a setting to toggle images, which is also good.

Thanks for the feedbacks. The author here. Personally I found it more "fun" (well, I guess for everybody it's different) to have some meme in between of the articles, some people hate to read too much text all in once, but yeah, I get your point. So I was thinking maybe I should add a switch like "meme off" to hide all of those at the top of article so that people don't like it can feel better while reading it.

You can probably set your browser to play animated gifs only once; that's what I did.

It's extremely distracting. It's a competently written article mixed with a bunch of childish animated nonsense

I was also born in the 1980s but am fairly immature, and liked the article layout a lot.
