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

It shouldn't be a need.
I do agree. I'm behind in terms of privacy protection, but most of my energy is on escaping some life struggles at the moment. I'm fairly aware of where to find what I seek, but it'll take a lot to collect all that information and implement it. Story of our lives though, eh? ;P
I've looked into prepaids, but it goes against my desire to support our telecoms. I looked into VOIPs as well, but most services block them because again, they need to identify YOU and I refuse to accept it, QoL be damned.
I'm currently thinking about shadowing off someone else's identity. Solves a lot of my problems, but I'd like to figure alternatives and potential reprecussions before I go bumming off my friends.
