!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.

How? We don't see Mastodon content in Lemmy unless they specifically tag a community or something. Why would it be different with Threads?
You don't see anything if someone doesn't subscribe to it.
If you follow someone on mastadon from lemmy/kbin in theory you'll get.. Something. Not sure how it works exactly. If threads federate then the same will be true of threads users.
How do you follow someone on Mastodon from Lemmy? I'm not sure that's possible. I see you're a kbin user so it's possible for you, but I don't think Lemmy users can.
If Lemmy instances defederate from Threads, it'll just be a symbolic message that the fediverse is anti corporate greed. A good precedent to set imo, but our actual experience probably won't be impacted either way.
What really needs to happen is Mastodon defederating from Threads.
If you search someone by @user on kbin at least there's a follow option. Whether lemmy has the same and where it puts stuff I cannot tell.
Lemmy can't afaik. Kbin is like Lemmy + Mastodon.
Even instances that don't federate are compatible with fedi clients afaik.
That's to say, if Threads is truly compatible, you should be able to use any fedi client. I doubt it actually works.
They will make sure no other client is able to read their content.
Not sure about Lemmy, other Mastodon-like clients are better suited for this
Yes you would be able to few the content that is similar to our content here as well.
I do think a better way to think of it is Mastodon & Kbin though.. You can definitely interact w/ toots on Kbin which stands out when compared to Lemmy. However, when compared to the Mastodon, the experience is not nearly as integrated enough to warrant using it as a replacement.
Based on what I heard on the Hard Fork podcast (where they interviewed Adam Mosseri), I think the plan is to build Thread-specific UI/UX experiences/features that go beyond the average ActivityPub client currently.
We would be able to read the threads, but we wouldn't get access to any additional functionality built on top of the ActivityPub structure unless we replicated their code base.
