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. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Lemmy communities need a distinct one word name for communities like how reddit has "subreddits" (reddthat.com)

Part of the latest migration wave. Something I realized when looking for communities on google is that "lemmy community" is super clumsy.

This has been discussed before, so I'll just copy my response from there:

The term "community" more or less settled, but if you are looking for something more distinct, there is an idea to call ourselves lemmings and the communities /c/liffs that we jump on. Alternatively we could call ourselves lemmons and the communities /c/itrusses.

I am all in for calling communities /c/itrusses. I'm sold!
