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

After migrating from Reddit, it’s jarring that comment sections aren’t cluttered with hashtag-style comments that are just links to subreddits like /HoLuP/ (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I love that comment sections here are like, y’know, discussions and stuff. Not just the same jokes and parroted phrases over and over and over.

Right now the first three or four pages in my feed are almost nothing but pictures of cats in boxes. Which is fine, but it’s hardly brilliant discourse.

Change your sort options. Your lemmy experience will change drastically depending on whether you're sorting by hot, active, top, etc.

I love cats but I had to filter those subs. I don't want my feed to be 1/2 generic pictures of animals I can't pet.
