Showerthoughts

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.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

A lot of people say fedditors but that sounds way too derivative of reddit

I second this one. Even though it’s fairly close to Lemmings, it does roll of the tongue and is unique enough from any other title.

The singular of that would be Lemmy, which would get confusing quickly. I think Lemmies should be what we call instances instead of what we call users.

You could always shorten the singular to ‘Lemmi’ or something similar to prevent confusion.

Good point though!
