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. 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

I'm tired about reading about reddit here.

We left. Let's move on.

Absolutely! Having this great thing in front of you, more lovable and genuine than what you had before, but you do keep on blabbering about the ex who went out for cheap cocktails and a 5-sec-back-alley-hump without lubricants with Steve.

Or it could be like bitching about an ex to your therapist. Sometimes you need to get stuff off your chest. The good news is you don't need to read it.

Making exact copies of subreddits, then being surprised people can't shut up about Reddit. ~~Reddit~~ Lemmy Moment.

Getting fired from that place was the ~sob~ best thing that ever happened to me.

I'd like to complain about people who hold things up by complaining about people complaining. It's about time something was done about it!

I haven't really looked at anything else.

I think that by being part of the change, we will be able to really make a big difference. RIP Apollo

Why not just ignored those posts then? There are plenty of other posts to read.

Expect in the case of these two websites, I kinda WANT to hear people bitch about their ex.

"To bitch about it?" Yes, I'm not a fan of the echo chamber of people's feelings toward Reddit; but it's still a situation that's going on, so I'd like updates and conversation surround that.

Retweet

Or should I say, Rethread

something something "ez" self-validation for the simple-minded folk.

You're right. But I'm forgiving of it. Many if not most of us came here because we were fed up with the BS over there. I'm fine with a grace period to let people vent.

Make a "Fuck_u/spez" community and drive people there to bitch about reddit if you wanna try and centralize it somewhere. I would, but I'm lazy and dont wanna moderate shit.

‘It’s not me it’s you x’ - spez, presumably

This is the first post about Reddit that I've actually liked here.

Your ex wants you back so bad...
