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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Would that bot even be functional long term with the API changes?
Supposedly, yes... but it temporarily was broken, requiring a quick-and-dirty questionable fix that might break again.
That was 2 months ago. At that time we still thought API prices will be reasonable
I was thinking more that even if the bot still works, which it could, that most/many users won't be on there platform to see it. They've abandoned and/or deleted their accounts.
