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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. 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.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I don't think so but you can definitely determine which communities someone has commented on by where they comment.

Big if true.

Yea i browse new and all, and comment in places not subbed to.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

Ditto. Many of my subscribed have very little participation, so I may not have commented at all.

I forgot you could do that. I had a habit of making sure I subbed before commenting. Lol.

upvote because showerthought, though I'm not sure if it's true. I'm only subscribed to [email protected] but browse c/all and block communities I don't want to see.

Also off topic, but oh my God why are there so many anime subs. It's not really for me and I'd rather see other stuff, so I blocked a few, and they kept coming, and coming... and coming. Like look at how long the list is now 😭

(no hate if you are into anime subs, it's just not for me. Except miku, I like miku ♥️)

What about people surfing all?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

Yeah, all is basically all I surf.
Lemmy is too small to narrow the scope too much.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 5 days ago

not even kind of. there are a ton of lurkers who dont comment at all

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago

Not really. You don't have to sub to comment and I doubt most people sub. I don't.
