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

I live life on the edge

Man that’s great! I can’t wait to try out your app

[–] StarLuigi@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Looks like a great app but reminds me too much of the official Reddit app

[–] silas@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago

Yes, I started with this layout intentionally to make it easy for those using the Reddit website or app to switch over. There will be a range of themes, colors, and customizability down the road too

When Reddit gives you lemons, don’t make lemmynade. Make Reddit take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn lemons, what the hell am I supposed to do with these?

Lemmy just throw those right back

What a waste of good lemons. Take their juice and pour them onto... You know what, forget it. I am not giving in to my hate.

It's usually a bad sign if a new social media platform only talks about another one (see bluesky, every other post is about Twitter) but I gotta say, most of the content on here is actually not referencing reddit (ignoring this very post) which I think is a good sign that the community here is flourishing.

I know I get my shit posting and meme fix already through lemmy alone and a bunch of communities have migrated and are frequented enough that I don't feel the need to open reddit anymore (at least at this point).

Totally agree, and I edited my post! I think people will still be able to infer where the lemons came from 😊

Nothing gross about a Lemmy Party 🥳🍋

[–] DichotoDeezNutz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Someone needs to create /c/puns

[–] TurretCorruption@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Or you could burn life's house down, with the lemons
