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 most popular seem to be lighthearted, clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts: 1

Rules

All posts must be showerthoughts
The entire showerthought must be in the title
No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- If you feel strongly that you want politics back, please volunteer as a mod.
Posts must be original/unique

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report the message goes away and you never worry about it.

Pfft, just use markor to write anything longer than a paragraph.

Markor is an app for "notes", that just happens to be fully capable of using markdown, and can handle mid length writing (up to a couple of chapters).

While it doesn't sync with its own service, you can use any syncing apps to handle that. I use foldersync on my android devices, it syncs both ways from gdrive, my nas, and the sd card on each device it can be scheduled any way you want.

But, when you know you're going to get wordy, you open markor, type away, and do it at leisure since unless the device dies totally, it'll just save where you are if you close the app. When you're done, copy/paste back into your app/site and Bob's your uncle.

I use markor because it's well coded with no bugs I can find, it's open source, and it bloody well works. Standard markdown formatting, easy exports, easy to use. It's pretty much the most reliable app I've ever used, and by far the most reliable note/writing app
