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. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

That is so not the experience of most of us who just don’t give a fuck about what OS other people use. I love my Mac but I have no desire to talk about my OS like it’s a hobby any more than I talk about the kind of car I drive.
I had to block linuxmemes because it was so spammy. I’m about to do the same to Linuxsucks as well.
But for the record Linux users are the CrossFit/vegans of the tech world. We all know you love your OS and none of us care.
I feel that. I like Linux, but I also like using the right tool for the job, and sometimes that's actually Windows. The rates of Linux talk here reminds me of Reddit like 15 years ago. It's nice, but also I forgot how weird it is to be in such a Linuxy echochamber
I care. I like hearing about it. Even when you make the wrong choice.
Cause. Effect.
😀
There ya go Linux user. I’m perfectly happy with my computer and the fact I can afford it without a problem.
