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

But are they ? I posted a comment a couple of days ago via lemmy.world on a 'remotely hosted' community, and then viewed the same post via its 'native' instance, and my comment never showed up, even days later.

Lemmy.world is having some performance issues, so perhaps the comment just didn't get pushed out

There are some issues regarding sync. If an instance is not reachable when an action is synced (e.g. due to overloaded servers), the sync is never attempted again and the instances will stay out of sync.

Perhaps some sort of delayed-retry would be a good idea.
