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
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.
Mastodon is a "failed service" for only having 12 million daily active users. Twitter has 400 daily active users. History will likely repeat itself.
Lemmy, Kbin, and Calkey will never have Reddit numbers but we can still build a vibrant community here. Because this platform isn't a business we don't need huge numbers.
