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.

Lemmy faces the same expectations problems as every free/libre software (feddit.de)

It's the same as with Linux, GIMP, LibreOffice or OnlyOffice. Some people are so used to their routines that they expect everything to work the same and get easily pissed when not.

I also currently have accounts on two different instances (one being kbin and one a lemmy instance) to better be able to switch to whatever features I most want (right now, Lemmy gets pretty much all the apps and has collapsible comments, so I'm leaning towards it) and also to switch between during downtime. The small size of individual instances means downtime is inevitible.

(Though I sure hope we get a better way to do this in the future -- even just syncing your subscriptions is currently a pain.)

I have accounts on 5 instances.. you kinda need multiple accounts IMHO.
