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

There’s nothing Reddit about it- some things are just universally true.
I'm liberal. Non techy. The week of the blackout i googled 'Reddit alternatives', clicked a few buttons, made a name and password, and that was it. I don't get why so many fedders think it's too difficult for others. It's a hell of a lot easier than Pinterest. I still don't get that shit.
Same. It was effortless honestly.
In echo chambers, sure.
If you consider reality to be an echo chamber, I guess. But I think a better definition of an echo chamber would be all of the conservative based subs that churn out the same provenly false bullshit over and over.
