There was an extensive postmortem for Google+ on Memegen, search for the phrase "vicg" among others.

(un?)fortunately I haven't had access to Memegen since 2020.

Why don't you have access? I'm curious

Non-FTEs lost access in 2020 or 2021 IIRC

That's super unfortunate; memegen is one of the best perks of working at Google

Possibly for the same reason they can't access MoMa.

Actually I got the date wrong, but it's because I quit my job at Google in late 2020 and my last day was in early 2021 :). I wanted to work somewhere where I'd get to do something interesting and have a meaningful impact in a reasonable time frame. Based on my experience, I felt that would be hard to find at Google.
