No Stupid Questions
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.

Account one day old with the first comment being about how the Fediverse is fundamentally flawed and wrought with risk. Further general fear mongering and lack of understanding how the technology works.
Found the Reddit marketing team. Please be sure to pass on to spez our most sinsere get fucked sentiment.
Instead of having a technical and factual discussion about it, let's instead attack people!
No one here needs your flavor of toxicity...
If you can't attack the argument or idea, attacking the person to rub your ego is a pretty toxic and nonproductive thing to do.
It's your choice to be offended and to respond aggressively instead of treating it as a discussion on how we can improve the platform, what deficiencies are concerning, and how those will affect the users and instance owners.
Oh please. Don't try and play the victim card here. You roll into this place with clearly no understanding of the Fediverse or Federated services and general and start spewing hyperbole and engaging in general fear mongering.
Then you cry foul when you get called out on it. Don't for a minute think your tired old cliche of making inflammatory statements then playing victim will wash for even one second.
M8, I'm not here to have slap fights with people like you.
You clearly are talking in bad faith, you claim I'm making inflammatory despite you failing, entirely, twice now, to attack my argument and not me.
And after pushing you to not be an ass, here you are again, being an ass. How about you try and engage on the topic, instead of stooping to interpersonal politics?
I have little idea, yeah, that's why I'm actually talking about it to kick off some conversation that either shows me why/how I'm wrong or otherwise increases my understanding. You have done neither, you have no leg to stand on to complain there as you have done nothing about it.
I'm a professional in this space, and am speaking from my experience in the industry and with scaling applications. I have a basis of understanding to pull from, and am enjoying actual discussion with others and have found a few technical people to dive deeper with, unlike you. And have learned a lot from others who have expanded on my points in other threads, and corrected me where I'm wrong. Again, you have done none of this.
Perhaps you are unfamiliar with technical conversation and common discourse/argument? Because toxicity is not how you carry one on.
I look forward to you failing to understand or absorb any of this, and continue with your personal attacks instead of contributing to actual discussion!
I'm talking in bad faith? Says the person who comes in swinging then instantly shifts to victim mode.
You didn't have an idea, you had an accusation. That accusation was called out, slapped down and now you are trying to build some narrative about being some "poor defenseless commentary just looking to discussed and idea". Bullshit!
I'm done with you. Truth is where it needs to be. Your attempt to slander the Fediverse failed. Learn to live with your failures.
