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: 1
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- 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
- If you feel strongly that you want politics back, please volunteer as a mod.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
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.

At my instance I did setup a email wildcard (receive emails from any address on that domain which don't already have a account) and I get a lot of phishing and scam emails, most of them are send "to" /c/[email protected], as link to this community is linked in sidebar, but I also seen emails "send to" random usernames
So yeah, It is happening, i wonder how bad it is on larger instances
The horror! I hope you have a good spam filter
thankfully that is a special mailbox for spam, I sometimes like to come through the emails and see where they submit the data, and maybe submit some data on my own, plus report the issue to website owner/hosting
