Show HN: Makr.io, a creative and collaborative way to play with images

This madness by people needs to stop.
If people wish to evolve, they can at least attempt to provide something innovative on top of what is already popular. Sorry if my feedback hurts your feelings but it is getting ridiculously boring on the Internet.
And no worries about feedback, it always helps us get better and better, so thanks!
Cause I'm not getting it at the moment. It kind of looks like Reddit for ADD kids.
Not terribly far off base. We want to build something that helps people actually create and influence things on the web, rather than just re/blog/share and discuss them. It's giving people a really simple way to participate with stuff they find funny/cool/interesting. Later, we would love to power people being able to play and interact with all types of content from all sorts of different places, but for now we are trying to get the core interactions right.
That to me seems cool, and I can very easily imagine how awesome that would be.
I had a chuckle at this.
An alternative to consuming boring things is to create interesting things - which, incidentally, is what Makr.io is trying enable for more people.
So, take your "ridiculous boredom" and use it to create something ridiculously interesting for the rest of us (on Makr.io or anywhere else, of course).
The meme generator argument is legitimate, the fact that the layout looks somewhat like a recent site therefore it's a clone is just a false analogy.
This is pretty much how things go. Good or bad things exist and people come along evolving them further. What matters is how are we participating in evolving whatever is available for better and upward.
For the P styleURL, you mean where you click into the lightbox, and pushstate the URL? We can do that.
I think you could make the argument that it's more about what's behind memetics - via the act of making something that holds true for people in a social context.
It's an interesting way to share something, and remixing in the form of a social dialog allows people to make a lot more than just a simple meme post.
