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

Let's be real, kids don't care about/understand what the API changes are and are on the TikTok

But that isn't realistic? There's a minority of techy kids who understand and care about the API changes

Those kids would be fine here. It's the "dumb" people that probably sit thru 5 minutes of Youtube ads or Twitch ads. It blows me away how many people put up with that stuff, and think it's normal.

I don't really think its even kids. I think its 'adults' that have only joined the internet since Facebook dragged them online via their phones in the mid 2010s.. The techy people are normally pretty chill. Old Reddit was full of nerds, and it was pretty nice

Im blaming cell phones for ruining the internet. It sure as fuck has hurt the gaming community
