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

MODERATORS
One look at the results of elections all across the world is enough to prove this hypothesis wrong.
Lemmy is not representative of the general demographic of countries. Thinking it is will lead to a very narrow world view.

Nah, it's probably because most of us left Reddit at some point, either due to banning left-wing subs or due to corporate dickery.
The right-wingers went their way, to places like Voat, Saidit, Gab and Truth Social.
