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

Does the bot used the API to send the message? In that case not even a couple of months alerts are going to work.
It's kind of sad to look back at that blind optimism that of course Reddit wasn't going to shit itself and I was definitely going to get that "!remindme in 10 years" DM and get a blast from the past.
Now all those messages will never be sent
Back when I was a teenager I had the blind optimism the future would be bright and we would keep all the positive trends we had in the early 2010s.
I was a teenager in the 90’s, so I understand about the whole blind optimism thing, and it’s something that I lost about 22 years ago.
