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

Obviously. But have you accessed fb in the last 5 years? There's no content anymore, just ads.
I stopped using Facebook long ago, but that doesn't really matter. I'm not really their target demographic anymore. I expect neither are you. I know people who use Facebook regularly for one reason or another. I don't think that use looks much at all like it did in 2007, but they're still using it.
@Lazylazycat @Silentiea Same. You don't follow boomers, too, do you?
Just family members of that age group really.
I hazard to guess they are the most likely to engage with adds like popups, and banners, and be least likely to recognize native advertisement.
