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-----

I should have guessed this would be a very unpopular opinion. Still think this is true.
Never used Instagram and barely ever FB. Never used twitter much anyway and a breed of Twitter and Meta seems like something I would never want anyway.
It seems people get some ego boost in saying: "We will not accept Threads in the fediverse". But since they have not even attempted yet and have such a massive success, because they'll probably dark pattern Instagram users into becoming threads users, they never need to consider using it anyway.
Please make your last sentence readable
Maybe it won’t be the same people, but I’m sure some people will complain because they were expecting to be able to interact with their irl friends and family from their mastodon accounts.
