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
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 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-----

Depends how you define hard coded sponsors. Ad for Raid Shadow Legends or NordVpn, then quite little.
How would you count videos where Asus/Dell/HP/Milwaukee have sent hardware for review?
Untrustworthy. Real reviewers buy the product. If you are reliant on companies to send you product to review then you cannot be impartial.
“Just to be up front I was sent this product free of charge for review. No money has exchanged hands and the company doesn’t get to review my video before I upload. “
So, if you write them a bad review are they going to send you one next time?
I more meant if you require companies to send you goods to review for your business to work, then you can't be impartial.
