Email is still great for DMs if you only use it for talking to individuals, and not to sign up to things

Not if youre using your main email.

Someone can easily find your home address, phone number, relatives, by simply using your email.

So always use a spare email that isnt tied to accounts containing personal info

That’s not something limited to email Its like password, don’t use the same one everywhere, otherwise you’re in big trouble

Create post

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
    • 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.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct
