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

Why bother? Just leave reddit
Oh, I've been gone. Deleted all my accounts except one, and never went back... until I saw that the coins would go away. Figured I'd put them somewhere fun real quick.
Not surprisingly, the first comment on the post I awarded (on r/pics) was a 10y premium account with the most basic-ass response that was "totally not a reddit shill".
Verbatim, they commented:
"Ok, it's been weird... but weird stuff is what the place is all about!"
Take from that what ya will, but looks AI generated to me. Doesn't matter, I've been loving bullshitting around the fediverse since the day I joined and have relegated reddit to the level of quora. It might answer some questions if I'm searching for something specific, but I'll be asking around here first
"Go back to reddit and interact with is some more fellow spez haters" sounds more like a post that was written by a reddit bot shill
I mean... your rational has merit. I don't really have a way to definitively prove I'm not a "reddit bot shill." I would assume my grammer, wording, or whatever, would kinda show I'm not a bot?
Am I bot and don't even know it yet? Hell of an identity crisis, that's for sure
Remember to delete and remove all the comments and posts with an automated before deleting the account, otherwise reddit will keep it and continue to monetize it
