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. The most popular seem to be lighthearted, clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts: 1
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- If you feel strongly that you want politics back, please volunteer as a mod.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report the message goes away and you never worry about it.

Just make an annual donation to Lemmy or charity of choice.
Charity is a great and noble idea, but I also find some real value in people giving me things, so I don't want us to completely rule that out so quickly?
Is it weird that I've already donated more to my Lemmy app and instance than I ever gave Reddit or my (paid) reddit apps?
I did too but tbf Relay for Reddit didn't really have a sub model before
Fair. I used both Sync and Joey. (weirdly, my Joey is still working?!) I've been impressed with Connect's developer. They've been running ragged keeping up with improvements. I was flabbergasted when I mentioned a slight quibble and it was fixed the next day.
