No reason, just that memes follow demographics of the space. Lemmy is probably full of people who were in their late teens-through-twenties in 2007, so to that group, it remains a funny nostalgic callback.
And I’ll just predict that in 15-20 years Skibidi toilet and all the GenZ/Alpha memes will dominate middle-age spaces.
I read ctrl,alt,del in like 2007 or so. Why is this suddenly popular again?!

It isn’t suddenly popular again. Loss memes have been continuously popular the whole time.
It must be me than. I hadn t seen it in ages before coming to lemmy.
Congratulations on not being terminally online!
