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.

I wouldn't know I blocked it immediately.
And nothing of value was lost to the HexBear instance.
You guys are somewhat still mad that the censorship of defederation has cut you off from an influx of newcomers to influence. And your tears are absolutely delicious.
Hexbear has been around for 4 years, unfederated. They only started slowly federating around 10 months ago.
At least try to be honest.
Yeah, and they're mad that the sane fediverse didn't let them spread. That was the point. Your message is not a gotcha ๐
They aren't mad though, they enjoy the instances they are federated with and are happy they defederated sh.itjust.works and that Lemmy.world "pre-emptively as a last resort" defederated them before even federating.
Having a dedicated Leftist space without constant liberalism is nice.
I can understand how having you own space is enjoyable, but you won't convince me that you don't care that your influence has been contained. Otherwise you wouldn't feel the need to defend your instance so hard here, going as far as brigading other communities en masse?
You want anyone to believe you don't care about being deplatformed? Stop acting like you actually care.
My Lemmy.ml account is my older account, I'm defending Hexbear from misinformation right-wingers are spreading.
It isn't "deplatforming" if Hexbear has always been self-sufficient and started platforming with other instances.
It is, because they tried federating and they were denied access.
The platform was never there, lmao. It isn't deplatforming. Hexbear has a democratic federating process that takes longer.
And you guys won't reach any mainstream audience to spread your bile. Sorry!
