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

It's so good because a lot of people have been waiting for a viable alternative to Reddit for half a decade or longer. It's non-corporate internet, the way it should be.
Non corporate internet, just like the days of old ๐ฅฒ
It was like Mastadon and twitter, once they meseed up they got replaced, and alternative services become popular.
Unfortunately reddit was the de facto place to find information and ask questing and be sure to find an answer, now the communities are actually split in half.
I really hope Lemmy will get better over time, we could create briedges like matrix for some popular sub*s
