Showerthoughts

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

Finding a hard time finding an active soccer community. The largest one only has a comment or two per post.

I'm looking forward it growing though. r/soccer 2010-2014 was my favourite internet community ever.

Yeah but if you comment then the commenting instantly goes up 33-50%!

c/football is the major one for now but will grow over time as more features are available or widely known.

Afaik saying c/football is meaningless because there can be a c/football on every instance.

I’m seeing one on Lemmy.world and one on Lemmy.ml when I do a federated search. One has 2000+ members and the other 10. Thought that would be self explanatory, my bad.

No problem!

On lemmy though the correct way to link communities is [email protected]

I mentioned that one. That’s the one with +2000 ppl.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I meant the way to link communities, c/community-name isn't the best.

I've been disappointed at how inactive the Rust communities I've seen are. r/rust was the main reason I visited Reddit.

Have you seen [email protected]?

Not a Rust dev but it looks pretty active to me.

That's what I'm doing for now 😅

Maybe in the future one of them will become the official one. Or there will be an official version and community version.
