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 most popular seem to be lighthearted, clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts: 1
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- If you feel strongly that you want politics back, please volunteer as a mod.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report the message goes away and you never worry about it.

While I agree, I'd like to add that it's not hard to recognize and remember the very active and/or notable posters.
Actually for the fun of it, I'll name a few on top of my head:
QuentinCallaghan: Sopuli founder and avid commenter.
Ategon: Hot in the tech subs, seems like a really nice fella.
Picard Maneuver: Memelord and legend
Flying Squid: Meme master and commenter
Dessalines: Dev for Lemmy, Jerboa (and the keyboard I use, thanks this is great).
Ruut: Lemmyworld founder.
And some more whose username I can't recall at the moment.
Also it'd be fun if you commnted some more. :D
