Ugh. Nothing is sacred. Why does everyone want to get rich? We don't do anything for the public good anymore. I hope Jimmy can get an link aggregator up that is hopefully not for profit. I think that is the only way, it was only a matter of time before someone "OpenAI"'d the fediverse.

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.

MODERATORS
I guess since it’s a twitter competitor it doesn’t affect Lemmy as much right now.
I read the article on it. The concern is that the Facebook instances will be defacto entry-points by sheer size a la lemmy.ml et al to a much grander scale, and they have more resources to support dev work than most public instances to incentivze a cleaner UX/UI a la lemmy -> kbin.
And when they're the biggest show in town, they have a magnetic pull towards new/future activity in the same way that the top 25 subreddits tend to suck the air out of all of the lesser known alternative subreddits.
The growth that they bring could have positive or negative results based on your view of the coin.
There's nothing wrong with talking. What a silly controversy.
There's nothing wrong with talking, but doing so under an NDA with meta automatically marks them as untrustworthy IMO.
