    My Reddit name was “ihaveredonme” which is not how British people would say it.

    Are people this averse to making a new account?

    Seems like privacy-oriented Lemmy wouldn’t care that much but even Reddit with its karma system wasn’t that big of a hurdle to new accounts

    Edit: apparently Lemmy DOES actually have a karma system

    I put a typo in my username when I first signed up on Reddit. I got it right this time! I think…

    I’ve always had trouble coming up with good user names, I think I lack imagination. Most of the time I just use my given first name plus my following two initials.

    I actually came up with something for my Reddit account. I’m using the same one here I did on Reddit, except I have to spell the “-” special character since Lemmy won’t take it. Reddit took the dash, but not the asterisk. I like my new one better actually. For those not Unix operating system aware, my user name (rm -r *) means “delete the world”.

    Think I did ok, but does it really matter when I can just create my own instance and choose whatever username I want?

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 most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

  • Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
  • When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
  • More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as “capitalism” and “communism”. If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct and the TOS

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
