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
- Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

So is there a way to search across instances?
Seriously, this will distance google from usefulness even further. Chatbots already at the jugular of google right now.
Can the big AI companies crawl and harvest lemmy and fediverse?
To comment on your last question. In theory, yes it can, but practically it will be as tricky as Google's method. It will be much more user-friendly for end-user though, you just have to ask "Is the housing market about to burst? fediverse top posts" and I would imagine the results will be pretty relevant.
