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

You must have followed a lot of communities that like Twitter. This was not my experience. I don’t remember the last time I saw a Tweet on Reddit and feel like it was measured on one hand in months, maybe years.

When I used reddit I followed 1 subreddit that was for tweets, r/nonpoliticaltwitter. It was really nice because then my feed would occasionally have random tweets with or without context that are just random people talking about things they done/things that happened to them, while not being political at all, it was awesome. Occasionally other subreddits I followed would have tweets posted on them, but it wasn't often.
