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

All posts must be showerthoughts
The entire showerthought must be in the title
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.

I feel like Fediverse users are nicer to each other and more generous with upvotes than reddit. (self.showerthoughts)

i’m doing it because I want to make the fediverse more friendly place, in hopes of making it more welcoming for new users, and the nicer place in general. But I wonder how much is just less bots.

Wait, posts showed both upvote and downvote rates at one point and they didn't collapse by default if they got too many downvotes until recently?

They never showed both total up and downvotes individually like some Lemmy clients do.. Only the sum of the two.

But, they didn't used to collapse regardless of the sum going negative.
