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
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) 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

While third party apps do track total up votes there is no "karma". So unlike Reddit having 60bajilliondie points means nothing to anyone but you. Don't even think I can see someone else's points.
You could with certain apps... Someone shared someone else's tally in comments on a post yesterday... Can't remember which app it was though.
Voyager is one I assume, because I can see your scores on your user page.
GTK...
I've only played with it a tiny tiny bit so far
When I click your name, Voyager shows me you have 415 comment points.
It fluctuates. I'm back on 18 according to Connect. It's not reliabke enough to be used fir a karma system, which is good imho.
