Posts would describe bizarre situations people have found themselves in, and commenters would take a stab at what put them there.

There’s a lot of potential here.

lemmy_check: crowdsourced fact-checking

lemmy_see: spot to compare pics of arbitrary stuff (lemmy see your favorite mug)

lemmy_know: ad-hoc polls, recommendations or requests for how-tos (lemmy know how you season your mac and cheese)

lemmy_tell_ya: rants about whatever

can i make these, since technically these are your ideas, i am definitely interested in lemmy_check. I believe lemmy_know is very close to c/ask

Lemmy_at_him

Lemmy_at_them, to have a wider scope.

[-] Kalcifer@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 weeks ago

Lemmy_at_em rolls off the tongue better, imo.

Shorter too, which is always good for a community name. You win!

I was searching for something that. Cool! I think the old Scrappy Doo character came to mind first!

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-----
