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

Coming into an established venue and insisting everything change to be more like what you're used to is certainly A Choice.
I like to think most of it is people just genuinely not realising things already have a name, so as long as we continue to nip the "sublemmy" stuff in the bud it'll peter out. Saw a lot of the same stuff on Mastodon last year but it settled down pretty quick.
I don't disagree with you but, as someone who has recently jumped ship from Reddit, can you point to a glossary of terms to help us get our jargon down?
Edit: Formatting hard.
Actually really useful. Thank you!
