There's tons of memes and stuff, but I was never into that, so meh. My thing was specialized nerd groups and they are mostly not here yet. With time, maybe they will come.
These communities takes years to form. Lemmy will most likely die out before they come.
What makes you think Lemmy would die that quick?
Reddit isn't going anywhere. Chances are very likely that Lemmy's growth will just plateau and stall once all this blows over. As mentioned frequently here, Lemmy's lack of accessibility and ease of use will prevent many from joining.
