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.

It really isn't.
I asked 'What are some left leaning lemmy instances'
You answered: Don't make drama.
And now you are pretending you provided an answer.
I don't care about conflict, I care about right wing activist mods using their power to harass and shape conversation.
Your post was more detailed than just 'show me a list of left leaning Lemmy instances'.. because you could self serve that with https://lemmyverse.net/
How I read your post:
I used to like it here, but then people started making drama with me, then the admin started making drama with me. I want to find an instance where there won't be any drama, tell me where I can go to a place where nobody will disagree with me.
I hear there's a site called read it that will cater to those needs if he's curious
If you can only win arguments with strawmen, are you even winning at all?
Asks the person, telling me I'm arguing when all I did was make a shitty joke in reply to something someone else said as a strawman comment?
Yes. Yes I am.
people like you are the reason I left reddit
No, people like the mods you mentioned are why. I didn't do shit but make a crappy joke to someone else. But you're clearly scanning your own post for more comments to try to argue why you're right and we're wrong. You were even given honest and well intentioned replies which you replied to by being a jerk as if everyone else in this discussion scoured the comments before making the suggestion. People like you are why you left Reddit. You are bitching about people doing what you're doing, you just want to be the one to do it with no objections.
Considering I thanked the two people that offered actual suggestions, and everyone else is just meming and joking, your reply is largely just you mentally masturbating.
I've seen this pattern so many times before that it is pretty clear where your position and ideology lies.
My original comment was a joke you dunce. And it wasn't even to you but you managed to "mentally masturbate" to your own post to the point you're arguing with people who never engaged you to begin with.
He obviously doesn't take anything that isn't immediate agreement with everything he has to say in any context well.
I have a hunch that he may start calling you a russian bot soon, based on the timing of the tantrum he's throwing about moderation.
Plenty of comedy communities on lemmy.world, why troll a place for people just looking for answers?
Do you ever even once consider how your low effort casual comments shape communities?
