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-----

Exactly. The entertainment value of it is very similar to the early MTV. When you find the right creators for you it's very rewarding.
And on top of that for me YouTube's music recommendations are always spot on. Sometimes it insists that I check a music video on the landing page. Every time showing me the same thing. And most of the times it turns out to be a very good discovery. So it's a very good medium to discover new music. Funny enough, YouTube Music's recommendations are always sub-par.
The app "Youtube" and the app "Youtube Music" are 2 different apps, with 2 different recommendation algorithms.
Ah, yeah that makes more sense. Thanks.
