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

And that's the right way to approach it, but in a platform were niche communities are so empty, even a meaningless comment counts

But yeah, I try to follow the same approach, I'm interested in many things, and subscribed to a lot of communities, but why should I comment if it doesn't help or adds anything to the theme of the post

Well, If anyone reads this, keep this as a good habit, even if it feels a bit weird in here, comment when you are of help, and learn from others when you have nothing to say

Edit: I love how the replies to this are doing the exact opposite lol, take care boys, I actually got a good laugh from this
