No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

I am theoretically switching over from Reddit to Lemmy. Finding myself spending more time on Lemmy than on Reddit. Maybe it's because I am limited to using the desktop and can't aimlessly browse Reddit on my iPhone. Of late, the only subreddits I cared for were on sports and their matchday threads and r/watches. I found myself aimlessly browsing through r/AskReddit and asking and answering pointless questions.

I made a lemmy account today, as I found out that all of the subreddits I'm a part of hava (at least for now) migrated to lemmy. But I've been pretty much no time on reddit recently so idk...

Is there any compilation lists of subs migrating to lemmy or do I just try my luck looking for communities? I leaved Reddit and I'm trying to set home somewhere but I'm still trying to figure out Lemmy.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Idk, just try searching for the sub's name in the lemmy search and if they have migrated, it should come up

Lemmy really isn't complicated... You create an account in an instance and can access all content from all instances. You can add groups to your home feed by subscribing to them, it's just like joining a subreddit.

what confuses me is being on one domain, then clicking 'view context' on a comment and it's on another domain that I don't have JS enabled for and am not signed into

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It's not that complicated, but it's not presented particularly well imo. I'm still getting used to it, and it took a minute to realize how content is kind of brought in to view, if that makes sense.

Same. After reddit came out and said they were going to start removing mods, I uninstalled Sync and haven't touched reddit. I signed up for Lemmy today and setup jerboa. I hope the Sync dev(s) make a Lemmy app, that would be dope

There is already a pretty good mobile app for lemmy though, it's called Jerboa for Lemmy. It's not the most polished thing ever, but it's much better than reddit's official app and it works pretty well.
