Showerthoughts

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
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) 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

If we call reddit users redditors, what do we call lemmy users (self.showerthoughts)

A lot of people say fedditors but that sounds way too derivative of reddit

Fedditors would be denizens of the larger Fediverse. It would not refer to only Lemmy users.

Fedizens? Fedditor seems to retain some of the "Reddit".

I could get behind Fedizen.

I’ve seen it a fair number of times, mostly on Mastodon. I hope it catches on here, too.
