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.

Every time I close mbin and open it again, my feed keeps resetting to "hot". Is there a way to set it permanently to newest?

Are you using an app? A web browser?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

In your settings. If you want specific instructions, then we'll need to know what app you're using. Or if you're on your browser.

I'm using the fedia.io site on mobile.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Personally I ended up bookmarking the newest page and just using that

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

So how do you bookmark the "newest" feed?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

For me, it's this link: https://fedia.io/sub/threads/newest

This filters it by only my subscribed magazines, and then sorts them by newest

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That link showed the feed how I want it... but how do you save it?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Personally I'm on chrome on mobile, so when I'm on that page I can just hit the star up to the right of the web address and it will bookmark it.

I actually set it as my homepage so I can just hit the home button and it takes me there, if you're also on chrome you should be able to tap the little box icon up there that shows how many tabs you have open, then hit the three dots icon and go to settings, then tap homepage and you can paste in the link

Ah, I'm on Waterfox. Thanks anyway!

If you use the apk for lemmy called "thunder" you can set up your default to be whatever option you want.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Thunder does not support mbin.

A fork of kbin

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yes, I discovered that when I downloaded it and tried to sign in.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

If you are searching for an android app, there's Interstellar. It supports both Mbin and Lemmy.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I tried Interstellar and it was missing some features, so I used the site on browser. I might have to try Interstellar again.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

If there are any specific features you feel are missing, feel free to reach out. We are always looking to improve. (I'm the developer btw.)

Even now, we have several major features queued for the next update and are in the process of a much needed ui overhaul.

I'm not computer/app savvy (in case you haven't noticed haha) so I don't really know how to get across what I would recommend. All I know is that app development is harder than it looks, and developers put a lot of work into these things with little gratitude. So I don't want to nag. Though I am happy to hear changes are coming, especially the UI. If I can figure out how to say what I want in an app, I'll let you know! 👍
