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

It was good when it linked to actually interesting new communities, it was bad when it linked to meta-communities just collecting reddit posts - rimjobsteve, foundthemobileuser, holup half the time, cursedcomments, redditmoment, etc.
My hatred for these knows no bounds.
I actually liked those as well. I usually skip usernames so when someone linked rimjob steve I at least checked the username.
