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

Then you haven't posted enough and/or love the "herd mentality" -- it's my 1 month in and I already been massively downvoted twice by randoms with multiple accounts.
In my experience it depends strongly on the comunity. Those meme comunitys are on their way to become reddit two, command wise. But most communities that are made to have a discussion have been realy nice so far.
Um....it actually happened on non-"meme communities". Can't mention their names for obvious reasons, but yeah.
I don't blame you for not wanting to name-drop but ya know people can see your post history?
There is a major difference between checking my post history for "culprits" and me saying it out loud who did what and who did not. :^)
Tbh these instances feel alot more like an echo chamber than most subreddits did
