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've signed up for it. I didn't use Instagram much at all and deactivated my account 3-4 years ago now so I don't expect I'll use Pixelfed much, but from what I've seen so far I would increase my usage of it if followed hashtags appeared in your feed.
Maybe I'm missing something, as I said I'm new as shit to it, but following people has them show up in my feed, following hashtags seems to resort in me having to just fuck myself. If that ever changes I'll play with it some more.
That does seem like a pretty basic feature. I remember being baffled by Twitter not having it for a very long time.
(edit: also just discovered that comfort_zone already said this, for some reason other replies weren't visible at the time)
I just discovered that on the web interface, you can see posts under a followed hashtag by going to "Discover" on the menu, then "My Hashtags", but they don't seem to sync from pixel.social (or whereever) to an app you're using.
For iOS, Vernissage doesn't seem to support hashtags, but in Tusker you can add the hashtag in the app, then see related posts by tapping "Explore" and then selecting the hashtag from your list that's displayed. Or you can also pin in to the top as a custom timeline by tapping the setting button at the top on the main screen, and adding your hashtag from there.
Which... I guess may make more sense than putting them in the Home feed to prevent tag abuse?
Ah I see where it is. Ya know..that makes sense and I think I can live with that.
Hmm..so on that Discover>My Hashtags page, just on the website. I'm following a good dozen-or-two hashtags..I only seem to have three appear on that My Hashtags page at a time. And at random. What the fuck lmao.
huh, confirmed. I added 4 hashtags and it only displays 3.
Joy of software in development, I guess. Looks like there's also a bug, in that sometimes after I follow a hashtag, I have to reload the page with F5 because it doesn't do anything when I click menu options.
Lol fucks sake.
yeah, I've replied to one of the dev's posts on mastodon asking about the only 3 hashtags part.
I have the exact same complaint. From what I see you can browse followed hashtags in the "Discover" tab but even then - it's showing the feed per hashtag, so you have to click each individual one to see the tagged posts and you can't browse a feed based on all followed hashtags. This is very impractical, and I basically stopped browsing pixelfed due to this.
