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-----

Email is federated as well, but I never saw anything I could call email instance wars. You can use whichever you want, no one really cares.
If I see an sbcglobal, aol, hotmail, or yahoo, I will assume tech illiteracy
haha, I do have a @hotmail.com account. Granted, nowadays I use it mainly as my "spam" account (to be clear: I'm not sending spam, it's the account I give when I'm required to give an email or create an account) but hotmail was a big thing in the old days before gmail and that account still has sentimental value to me.
I have a Hotmail account for the same reason. I've got a few things that still send to my Hotmail, like government and banking stuff, so I've just kept it. Outside of work, I don't email much anyway so it's not much to look after 2 accounts.
