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

Just keep in mind you have until Oct of next year to migrate. Either go for Windows 11, Linux or Mac OS.
You can't safely stay. Don't sacrifice your own security because of some personal vendetta against Microsoft. Windows 11 is very similar to Windows 10.
Thanks for the heads up. I don't really have a vendetta against Microsoft, I just hear a lot of moaning over how bad 11 is and have been hesitant to upgrade thus far. Even if it isn't great, I managed to strip 10 down in a way that it closely resembles 7, so I'm sure I can do something similar.
You know what else resembles windows 7?
A default install of Linux Mint!
