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.

Maybe it's just because there's less content on Lemmy as of right now, but I remember doomscrolling Reddit, but now I only briefly open Lemmy once or twice a day.

Could this be an example of the affects of addictive social media?

I haven't found a way to hide posts I've seen yet. So I find myself opening Lemmy, seeing a little new content and then putting it down. There isn't a constant feed of new content to just consume.

It's been nice not to be inundated with a neverending stream of bullshit.

I think it depends on how you enter, Liftoff and Connect do

How do you hide viewed posts on liftoff?

I'm on it and havent found the option for it.

hmm cheers, I was using just the mobile site and lately Jerboa, neither of which seem to have it unfortunately 😕

Some apps do have features like that, I am pretty sure that WefWef (the app I use) added this option recently.
