Why would someone use this instead of quickmeme.com?
To me this seems to be much faster and easier to use than quickmeme.com
Another site down!
Desktop software specific to one platform? Wow, it's been a while since I've seen that.
I'm confused because you seem to be insinuating that fully native applications are bad thing, and much rarer than they actually are.
This meme thing is obviously daft, but I'll be very sad if I'm forced in to using compromised cross-platform apps or web-apps for everything.

What compromises do you have in mind? I could think of some, but I don't remember (as I could forget) any product that would lack something only because of its "multiplatformity".
Isn't it obvious that a GUI application that has to bend to the conventions of multiple platforms will be, at best, on par, but likely worse, than had it been designed for a specific platform?
(Again, I'm not talking about this daft meme thing :))

I was trying to think too much about it. So right, GUI. But there is too few true multiplatform applications anyway. You do have ports for different platforms and those ports can each use appropriate gui toolkit.
Yeah. I love it when companies put out a versions of a product that look and feel distinct and standalone on each platform.
Though IMO some apps do get away with being uniformly alien everywhere, for example Spotify. Can't put my finger on why.

Then you probably aren't on Hacker News that often. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3271572
