Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try [email protected] or [email protected]
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

I'm still on Facebook to keep up with family I don't want having my phone number. I'm on Insta to support friends who's business is kind of tied to it (tattooers and other artists mostly). I'm on Threads because my work requires me to be in there (and elsewhere) to promote their stuff. I don't actually do that, but apparently once you have an account it's there forever unless you want to nuke your Instagram account as well.
I've receeded from FB and Insta (along with Twitter {"X"} and Reddit) as well as being fully adverse to posting on Threads in favor of Fediverse alternatives. Been on Mastodon since the 2021 Facebook whistleblower and Lemmy since Reddit's API BS last year. Haven't tried BlueSky or the other Twitter alternatives. Now... getting away from using Google/Alphabet has been another struggle entirely.
