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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- 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.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I’m sorry that happened, but that’s just one community. That’s not enough of a sample size to say anything about Lemmy.
The only subs that are active are memes, politics and technology subs, everything else is desert
You should browse the All tab more.
I do, but i don't really find a lot more content that interest me in all. The subs that promote other subs are my main discovery method
There are a lot of science communities, there are some local communities, sports communities, hobby communities. The ones I’m subscribed to seem pretty active to me.
I would say hidden more than desert, but I see what you mean, you have to look out for content more.
Oh please, we all realize this didn't take off as expected. Reddit has its grip
This is actually exactly what I expected and am pretty content with it.
Yeah too many people expected another Digg situation but that was completely unreasonable.
