Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.

Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):

Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.

The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:

This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.
We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.
As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!
Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.
Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).
Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.
Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.

He's literally the Hutt lord of Tatooine (and nothing else). Where would you expect him to live?

The Hutts have other planets, and their power base is many systems, and not just one single system.

The entire character of Jabba exists only because he is the crime lord that lives on Tatooine. If Jabba had lived somewhere else, his role in the movies would simply have been filled by some other crime lord that lives on Tatooine. Maybe another Hutt. Maybe Black Sun or the Syndicate.

Fair enough, but not necessarily. I doubt there's one single Hutt for each individual planet/system, they have families (per the Clone Wars, etc.) and they are modeled after the Mafia and their families, which cover whole regions of an area, and not a single point of an area.

But, no need to digress into a nerd fight over it. :)
