I think that’s not quite right, but it’s certainly an interesting take.
Yeah, thinking about it more, the similarities are kind of narrow.
You could make a better comparison with a regular crowd, but then it wouldn’t feel like much of a showerthought at that point because it’s just observing that the crowd has moved online.
Laugh tracks might be used to improve there ratings of a show, but with memes there’s not really a show and no one’s forcing a laugh
I think the essence of what I was thinking of though is that just like a regular crowd, an online crowd can still influence you to think something is funnier or better than you would alone (at least for me)

I didn’t know how to react at first, but once you got over 20 upvotes, it all made sense.
So in the future those upvotes will have deceased people.
So… downvotes function like boos?
Asking for some.
