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

I don't know how I didn't think of this be for, but the Lemmy bean posting could be a psyop that reddit is trying to get people to return to them after switching to Lemmy

Thanks! Yeah, I've already blocked a bunch of topics and users, and I'm still playing whack-a-mole with loose ends on my start page.

And you're completely right. The Fediverse is still very much a niche thing and, by nature, not the best place to expect living communities for certain topics when it's already hard to find them in much more popular, casual, and easy to find websites.
