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

Also the frequency of ads plays a significant role in how hard they are grinding my gears. For example, vanilla YT has become completely unusable because of this. Sites like that are easily above 6/10 IMO.

Those puzzle captchas are a total nightmare. At least 5/10. If they show up in bizarre situations, like the one you mentioned, the amount of annoyance starts at 6/10.
