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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Are you avoiding all interaction with the communities on lemmy.world, also? I'm not clear if I should just avoid using this .world account, or if I should avoid all .world communities to prevent overloading.
Just the account. If you post to lemmy.world from different instance, it's ok. Though be prepared that users may see your post with a delay depending on the state of lemmy.world.
No I'm not avoiding anything at all. I personally switched instances, just to try and ease the load on the .world server while we flooded in here. I'm sure they would appreciate you switching to another one. I found my countries one, a bonus is that it comes with my local communities! Don't be put off by the smaller populated instances.
Also juuussssttt in case you weren't sure, generally speaking you have access to the same content between instances (some are more strict than others and don't allow certain content like NSFW stuff, but they do tell you in advance).
