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. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I don't think I've seen a single post about sports in Lemmy. Ever. Same with mastodon.

I don't think the group of people interested in sports and the group of tech savvy that use the fediverse overlap that much!

So why the shower though(t)? 😕

Well I'd still like to be clean.

This is actually my biggest complaint about fedi services. I really love the baseball communities on Reddit (not on Twitter, though, that shit is toxic and often very homophobic), and there's just not a substitute elsewhere. I would love for baseball Lemmy to take off.

Just a general reminder for folks to generate content. Don't worry if it doesn't get a lot of attention yet, the fact that it's there will bring people in.
