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.

Imgur breaks when I upload, and catbox uploads the video but can't play it...

I need a service that can handle large quality images or UHD videos.

For videos maybe an embed from YouTube?

Yeah, I know on Lemmy we’re typically all about self hosted or federation friendly content, but there are reasons YouTube is the king of video hosting. Video hosting is expensive and hard to pull off.

Have you checked out Peertube? It's part of the fediverse.

I think Vimeo started leaning into this when they realized competing directly with YouTube was a losing game

You could use a porn site or look specifically into NSFW services.

A channel i used to watch kept getting banned from youtube for copyright violation so they started using xvideos in addition to dailymotion.

Peertube? It’s decentralized for videos

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

If you want free services, your option is pretty much limited to YouTube. There is also PeerTube if you can find an instance that suitable for your video. If you don't mind paying, then you'll have more options such as Vimeo or Cloudflare Stream, or even host a PeerTube instance yourself.

Self hosting is a great option. It gives you full control.
