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.

Oh, I've been gone. Deleted all my accounts except one, and never went back... until I saw that the coins would go away. Figured I'd put them somewhere fun real quick.
Not surprisingly, the first comment on the post I awarded (on r/pics) was a 10y premium account with the most basic-ass response that was "totally not a reddit shill".
Verbatim, they commented:
"Ok, it's been weird... but weird stuff is what the place is all about!"
Take from that what ya will, but looks AI generated to me. Doesn't matter, I've been loving bullshitting around the fediverse since the day I joined and have relegated reddit to the level of quora. It might answer some questions if I'm searching for something specific, but I'll be asking around here first
"Go back to reddit and interact with is some more fellow spez haters" sounds more like a post that was written by a reddit bot shill
I mean... your rational has merit. I don't really have a way to definitively prove I'm not a "reddit bot shill." I would assume my grammer, wording, or whatever, would kinda show I'm not a bot?
Am I bot and don't even know it yet? Hell of an identity crisis, that's for sure
Remember to delete and remove all the comments and posts with an automated before deleting the account, otherwise reddit will keep it and continue to monetize it
