I don't want to sound like a snob, but 9GAG and Imgur are pretty awful communities with content taken from Reddit–which itself "steals" content, but it's less horrible about it. Both of these communities are heavily moderated and most users don't actually realize where their "fresh memes" are coming from: 9GAG's moderation team actually sways voting to control what hits the front page and immediately bans accounts that mention "Reddit" in any way.
I don't disagree, but ... should I care? I personally don't care where my funnies originated, only that I get them. If 9gag is a nice skin over ripping off reddit but preselected, why shouldn't I use that?
