I like these federated services being kinda "rough around the edges"

Showerthoughts

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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

MODERATORS
I like that the rough edges keep the boomers away. That's the point where I know to move on from a social media site.
I used the old site for more than a decade, and I remember when the highest upvoted posts on the frontpage had only 2K upvotes. Lemmy is at that point now and its future is full of potential.
When I first joined the old site, the top post all time was the one about the guy trying different things with rice (either that or the guy posing with asscracks at an MTG grand prix)
Reddit 0/10
Lemmy with rice 10/10
Oh man I remember the asscracks guy, that's gotta be like ten years ago now?
It's a bit of a shame the no-poop guy is no longer the top post on Lemmy.
