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

I believe the people still ranting about Reddit just have not yet given up their hope in returning there some day when Reddit has "learned their lesson".
For some, Lemmy is just a temporary protesting statement.
Because I have my doubt that Lemmy will come close featurewise for now. The whole search engine issue for Lemmy content (right now it sucks to Google for topics) and lack of GDPR compliance (deleted isn't even deleted), as well as visible votes to everyone (it's currently only hidden in the UI but everyone could see the names of user who voted up and down), are three issues they need to solve.
There's a bunch of schadenfreude in there, too.
