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. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

joining the fediverse to bitch about reddit is the same as going on a date, and spending the whole night talking about your ex (lemmy.fmhy.ml)

I'm tired about reading about reddit here.

We left. Let's move on.

You're right in that the analogy is way off. Here's the only way it would make it right, is if your new date also wanted to vent about your ex. That's probably not the case. But being a Reddit refugee is something in common for many people on Lemmy (especially right now) and so it makes perfect sense for people to talk about it.

Also, I don't give much thought to the posts I scroll past...
