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

Tbh, my upvote policy didn't really change when I moved to Lemmy.
Something has to be dangerously bad for me to downvote it.
I upvote anything that seems interesting or agreeable to me.
Same here. If I don't like it, I simply won't upvote. If it's overtly and obviously offensive, I will downvote (happened maybe 4-7 times on Lemmy thus far).
Like what? A disagreement?
Insulting, hateful, dangerous advice
Another already commented.
But the general rule of thumb I use is that if it could literally get someone seriously injured or killed, I downvote.
According to your comment history you're okay with it as long as it's those "libtards" being maimed or killed.
