This is directed to everyone who has posted in this thread who mentioned they have their phone in or nearby while they shower for music, audio books, etc.

Why?

How long are you showering that you need some content to fill the time?
It honestly concerns me that some people can't go five to ten minutes, alone with their own thoughts.

Someone here mentioned meditation, and that is how I shower. A quick, five minute chance to disconnect from the noise of the world.

ITT: People who have apparently never heard of a Bluetooth shower speaker.

I hate Isekai. I just don't get it.

Water droplets on phone screens are too OP

People take their phone to the shower?

I leave mine on the towel rack and listen to tunes while I scub

I want to do this but the music would be too loud so it would make me uncomfortable

This is the way 👆

Bluetooth shower speaker. Most even have control buttons too, so you can adjust the volume, pause/play, skip/rewind, etc.

I sometimes take mine to the shower room, when I'm in the middle of a podcast pr something I wanna finish listening to, but then I'm quickly reminded of what a welcome reprieve a shower is of the constant media bombardment hellscape we exist in.

I want a shower I can lay down in. That would be nice. I miss having one I can sit down in. It was great for meditation.

Get a shower chair if you have room.

Picture yourself laying down in warm rain. Now picture yourself sitting in warm water. See, the difference? One I find more relaxing than the other.

[–] FishFace@piefed.social 3 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

I see. But the most common type of bath I know of is a shower-over-bath!

[–] daggermoon@piefed.world 3 points 2 hours ago

We have one. It's too small to lay down on my back in. I can't even sit comfortably in it. It's so narrow.

So just don’t stop up the drain when you’re laying down in the tub while the shower is running? I’m with @FishFace@piefed.social on this one - a shower that you have space to lay down in is a tub. Is this maybe a language barrier thing?

[–] daggermoon@piefed.world 2 points 2 hours ago

I'd need a bigger bathtub. I mean laying down flat on my back. English is my mother tongue (sadly).

[–] MintyFresh@lemmy.world 4 points 3 hours ago

Right? I want a shower with one of those fancy fold down cedar chairs

[–] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 11 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

It's waterproof and I wanna listen to podcasts

[–] Opisek@piefed.blahaj.zone 27 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Water resistant*

The difference is, if you do end up getting some water damage, the manufacturer will tell you to go please yourself!

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 18 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Which you can also do in the shower.

[–] affenlehrer@feddit.org 13 points 4 hours ago

With the phone. It's can vibrate and show porn.

[–] Delilah@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 3 hours ago

The difference is that waterproof means absolutely nothing.

[–] daggermoon@piefed.world 3 points 3 hours ago

I can take my phone in the shower?
