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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. 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.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I'm dumb about this whole fediverse thing. Do I need to make an account on the lemm.ee instance to enjoy that sweet stability?

Or can I just "swap to a new instance" and keep my incredibly tiny comment history?

Using lemmy.world and constantly getting gateway errors.

Wound up just making a lemm.ee account.

Let's see if this is noticably more stable.

Weird, thought I was on this account when I made the comment.

You can't migrate accounts (yet?), so you can only make a new one at lemm.ee. Since lemm.ee is federated, you will be able to enjoy all of the sae content, regardless of ir being hosted on Lemmy world, ml or anywhere else...
