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.

Ironically, that was one of the feature I actually really liked. Seeing the same post two or three times didn't really matter to me since if it was posted in different communities, there was a wider variety of responses and perspectives (or I could just scroll past it).
Also it let me discover new communities that I wasn't aware existed.
Are we talking about the same kind of post? I'm referring to stuff that doesn't have multiple points of view. Like cat pictures or w/e
Even with something like a cat picture, I'm on sites like reddit and Lemmy as much for the comments and conversation as I am for the actual content, getting shared to different communities/subs at different times means different people are seeing it, so different stories and trivia and jokes are being shared in the comments even though they're being inspired by the same picture.
And of course, the same picture of a cat being shared to r/aww will have a very different kind of conversation than the same picture shared to a different sub where the point is for people to do something like make up a fake backstory about the picture (not sure such a sub existed, but it very well might have) which would again be very different to if it were shared to r/catsStandingup (Cat.) And if it gets shared to PhotoshopBattles, that's another totally different thing entirely.
Well in these cases, I just scrolled past. It wasn't a common enough occurence for me.
