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. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Perhaps this is a dark thought... but I'm wondering what the future Lemmy equivalents to "We did it Reddit!" or "Thanks for the gold kind stranger!" will be.

It seems like something cliche or corny always springs up, like it's unavoidable.

Random thought related to gold, but I wonder if it would be feasible to make some kind of fediverse tipping system that allowed people to give tips that showed up as something gold-like or award-like. Could be neat, but validating the payment when multiple instances are involved could be challenging without getting instances involved with payment gateways and finance regulations. I'm sure it could be done with crypto but that would probably be offputting to most people.

Could be a thing for individual instances. Broadly not Lemmy wide, can't wait for the first stupid Internet drama here.

One month into my home instance’s existence (lemmy.world) and we’ve already had our inaugural hack and a few technical growing pains that broke several mobile apps for days
