I like these federated services being kinda "rough around the edges"

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.
It's definitely forced me to learn a lot within the past few days. I guess I should thank reddit, because if they hadn't forced the 3rd party apps out of business I wouldn't have ever heard of Lemmy or kbin.
If reddit hadn’t banned me on the most ridiculous of charges, I wouldn’t have learned of this place.
Over the course of a decade reddit became less and less satisfying, yet I still grieved when I got banned. Over twelve years I accumulated a lot of cool stuff I’d written and I had the evidence of it touching thousands of people. That hurt to lose.
But then I found Lemmy, and it’s like being back in early reddit.
