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

Fucking hell I couldn't agree more with this post. So many people on here sound like they want to have won the breakup. Lemmy shouldn't just be "the place that's better than reddit", that's not much of an identity. I'm not interested in this place just being the Canada to Reddit's USA.
Amen.
But if we're going to align this situation with nations can we be somewhere cool like new Zealand or something instead of Canada? Nothing against Canada, but they filmed LOTR in NZ..
Right. Call me when they film lotr in Canada I guess ¯_(ツ)_/¯
"nothing against canada"
Like how I did in the comment you first replied to?
I'm not shitting on Canada because I'd rather digitally identify as new zealand.
