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.

Using Ubuntu may give off hipster vibes to the average PC user, but within the Linux community its has the opposite effect. (self.showerthoughts)

Edit: got nothing against Ubuntu, it's Linux after all and that's what matters 🌻 Edit2: people took this very seriously for being a shower thought..

If you're hanging out with people that shit on your favorite distro, it might be time to find new people to hang out with. Most of us are just happy you're not using Windows. Yeah, we'll tease each other over distro choice, but it's good-natured ribbing, not shitting on someone's attempt to cast off the shackles of closed-source, proprietary software. That's pretty fucked.

Ubuntu was where I started and might not have gotten into Linux without it. Ubuntu is Linux and thats what matters in the end.
