I'd say once people stop talking about reddit.
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 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.
Its like a boyfriend you broke up with but you can't stop talking to your friends about.
Go on Reddit and talk about how your new boyfriend Lemmy is so awesome, that way you're accomplishing something.
Here, we know Lemmy is awesome and here we know Reddit broke your heart.
"For the record, I broke up with Reddit, not the other way around!"
Just block the communities that focus on Reddit. It doesn't really spill out into other communities.
Like this one? Lol
I checked and I'd need to unsubscribe from Technology, Shitpost, aww, Showerthoughts, but yeah I have the feeling that it's already slowly getting better.
Mastodon is even worse. It feels like a quarter of the posts are about Twitter or Musk.
Lemmy will get better with time. We're getting some amazing clients, which really helps.
