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.

It's the same as with Linux, GIMP, LibreOffice or OnlyOffice. Some people are so used to their routines that they expect everything to work the same and get easily pissed when not.

The software doesn't fail, it just has another workflow than what ones used to. Learning a new software takes time but what you describe sounds like a stress situation where any irritation would cause delay and therefore more stress.

It fails to do what I want, and that's basically the same when I'm irritated lol

My point is that Lemmy being different and sometimes frustrating isn't a big deal because none of us need it to work.
