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. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

All posts must be showerthoughts
The entire showerthought must be in the title
Avoid politics
1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.

People who haven't gotten into habit of googling stuff in the last 20 years might not get into it at all anymore because of how search engines are gamed with SEO spam tactics nowadays (lemm.ee)

Idk, I found it to be quite good but it may be just me knowing how to search stuff (even tho Google just gives shitty results and DDG is hit or miss)

I also know how to use keywords, etc. And maybe I went a bit overboard when I said Brave Search sucks. It doesn't suck, but with Kagi, I don't feel like a product any more and the search results make sense again, like with Google a couple years ago. Most free search engines just don't work that good any more.

If you would've told me 2 years ago that I'll be paying for a search engine in the future... Well, I would've thought that you're crazy. But here I am now.
