that is possibly the best compliment I've been given in ages, it's just a simple, fun playground and basically my social media replacement (just without the annoying audience :)

I was just going to check it out again to get some inspiration but it looks like it's blocked?

I threw some filtering on it just to be extra safe and wound up blocking everything but the US. Did get a small uptick on bot traffic when I posted a link so might have overdone the security a little.

Guessing you are from one of the countries in hat showed up in the filter logs. I’ll do some selective unblocking.

EDIT- been selectively unblocking as I see them. I'm extra paranoid but also always learning.

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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. 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.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----
