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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Legit the first thing I noticed. It’s actually not that hard to find the community you’re looking for.
Having a hard time finding an active soccer community. The largest one only has a comment or two per post.
I'm looking forward it growing though. r/soccer 2010-2014 was my favourite internet community ever.
Yeah but if you comment then the commenting instantly goes up 33-50%!
c/football is the major one for now but will grow over time as more features are available or widely known.
Afaik saying c/football is meaningless because there can be a c/football on every instance.
I’m seeing one on Lemmy.world and one on Lemmy.ml when I do a federated search. One has 2000+ members and the other 10. Thought that would be self explanatory, my bad.
No problem!
On lemmy though the correct way to link communities is !football@lemmy.world
!football@lemmy.world would probably be better, just FYI.
I mentioned that one. That’s the one with +2000 ppl.
Yeah, I meant the way to link communities, c/community-name isn't the best.
I've been disappointed at how inactive the Rust communities I've seen are. r/rust was the main reason I visited Reddit.
Have you seen !rust@programming.dev?
Not a Rust dev but it looks pretty active to me.
!rust@lemmy.ml and !rustlang@lemmyrs.org are also (relatively) active.
Ahh but theres now 3 i have to browse
That's what I'm doing for now 😅
Maybe in the future one of them will become the official one. Or there will be an official version and community version.
