OP
EDIT: Thanks for the perspectives everyone - l did not expect this to blow up and I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed with the vastly different responses (thank you to those who treated my question as genuinely not stupid). I think my main takeaway is that while not everyone thinks not showering every day is objectively disgusting, I can be taking more steps to make absolutely sure I don't smell bad so I'm considerate of others. It was helpful for me to see all the factors people consider when making their showering decisions. Since the people in my life are eager to hug me, choose to sit close to me, select me for people-facing leadership roles, and are very honest in every other area of my life, I'm choosing to continue doing what's right for me and make more drastic changes if I see evidence otherwise.
I (F25) typically shower every 2-3 days. When I say I don't shower every day, I mean I do not step into a shower at all, not just skipping washing my hair. My curly hair doesn't really get greasy, but if it does, I hide it with different hairstyles and accessories. I don't sweat often, always wear a scented deodorant, and just work an office job with a few days remote.
A few days ago I saw a post absolutely blasting people who don't shower every single day, and many people even said they shower multiple times a day. The comment section was pretty unanimous and I'm feeling self conscious about this, especially because I've always had an almost nonexistent sense of smell. My boss also made a comment (EDIT: in a conversation completely unrelated to hygiene) assuming everyone showers every day and I lied and went along with it.
My ADHD brain can't fathom doing such a taxing routine every single day. I also hear that it's not great for your skin and hair to shower every day and the WHO doesn't even recommend showering every day. Are daily showers just a thing in the USA? Do I actually have poor hygiene and everyone just bears with me?
It depends on the person. If you have BO then you need to shower more. If not then it's fine
The tough part is that I can't tell. Anytime I ask my husband, who's probably nose blind to me, he just shrugs and says βyou smell like you, and it isn't a bad smell.β Not very helpful lol.
Oh look, it's married to another
Just average redditor things.

Yeah, food crumbs

And many more such revolting stories of redditor hygiene throughout the comments.

A gay politician in Germany has sparked outrage after sharing disturbing videos of him performing sexual acts online. In one clip, Martin Neumaier, a Free Democratic Party (FDP) candidate for the district of Ostalb, is seen singing the Nazi-era German national anthem while βmasturbating himself rectally with a dildo.β
According to Der Status, several of his pornographic videos were removed from X (formerly Twitter) for violating the site's Terms of Service, but censored clips continue to be shared across the internet.
In one video, Neumaier is seen naked while reciting the first verse of Nazi-era German national anthem and using an anal dildo. In another, Neumaier inserts a feces-covered dildo into his rectum before smearing it on a Quran.
Other now-deleted videos of the disturbed politician show him with feces under his nose, roleplaying as the former chancellor of the German Reich, Adolf Hitler. βI have a Hitler beard made of shit,β exclaims Neumaier, revealing his home address to his viewers.
Another video filmed in a public restroom shows the fitness coach licking a urinal and a potty seat. Seemingly unfazed, Neumaier takes his fetishistic behavior to the next level by kissing a potty brush βas punishment.β
The clips sparked immense backlash on X from many who are disgusted that a political candidate would conduct himself in this manner.
βI just can't take this shit anymoreβ¦β wrote one displeased user in German.

So I met Jerry Seinfeld because he likes to see a movie before theaters open (so he doesn't get mobbed by strangers) and my company was happy to oblige. We never charged him anything we just asked he tip the person who opens the theater for him. That was me.
