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 best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I mean you'll always be able to. In the same way you could use actual VHS recorders or film to get those effects. But it's far easier to apply the filters. Likely yes, such codecs won't be readily available and it might be more effort to do the real thing than add a filter. Who knows.
