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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. 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.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

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

hot take?

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..

Most of what differentiates a distro from another is one of:

  • package manager
  • default packages/configurations (including the desktop environment)
  • init system

The rest well… it’s Linux.

I’d argue it’s just the first two. Systemd gets a lot of hate but many don’t notice the difference between distros with or without it
