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
- Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Wait so when this happens on normal sites is it an example of how effective non-federated sites are? This happened on Reddit, Digg, Something Awful...
Yes. Federated sites have a lot more going on under the hood, yet this bean craze was able to spread across all instances in the fediverse without lag or other hiccups. We were all in on the joke as if we were on a non-federated site.
