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
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    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-----

Their review forgot to mention the incredible number of crossovers supported from other financial titles. In most cases you can directly load cloud saves from all kinds of other releases in the genre from a vast number of publishers. Really helps reduce grinding.

As far as I know FreeTaxUSA can only support saves that you manually replay in their game.

Actually FreeTaxUSA supports saves from TurboTax, and other similar titles! It was very seamless.

After all, they want to compete with them.

Players should also be aware that TurboTax's game publishers lobby Congress to ensure that their game genre survives, keeping the government from providing a simpler alternative to their game.
