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.
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)
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

But it is competition. When someone separates themselves now they are competing for the resources they decided not to share.
It wasn't ever intend as a competition either. If they're feeling overwhelmed and want to separate from big instances for a while, then they should be able to. Everyone's taking it super personal when it's not meant to be.
Regardless of the intention, competition is competition. Two artists whose paintings hang in the same gallery are competing for attention.
Competition happens any time a resource is needed by both and not shared. One who chooses to stop sharing has entered competition. Unless they just don’t want the resources.
