A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

It's not the kids, not the lurkers, not the mods... y'all just nice people. Lemmy's got a good vibe going... or at least enough windows that we can close if the vibe gets shit.

Definitely a better vibe than reddit, and I really hope it stays this way! The community seems to be a lot more willing to have discussions, and comments don't just devolve into the same lame jokes that get repeated over and over.

I was on reddit about 12 years. Had zero problems. Last year and a half or so started getting banned from communities. It accelerated. Got banned from communities I’d never heard of or visited.

One day I got the old heave-ho from reddit itself, and that was that.

Let's hope (and put the work in) it stays this way. :)
