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.

- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia

I'm using the default messages app on my Google phone. The biggest source of my annoyance is every iPhone user adding reactions and such, which act like a new message for me. So any group chat may as well be a fireworks display of sounds and vibrations when it is active. I've only set one rule to cool down on messages for 5 minutes and it's already made an impact.
The app lets me make specific rules for each app, but I don't see a way to do a rule per group chat, which would be ideal, but this is already an improvement
Try using Google Messages instead. It will apply iPhone reactions instead of making new massages.
