Why not call this board, "supportlemmy"? (lemmy.ml)

Or just make another one that's more honest and sincere...

Community:

• asklemmy

• supportlemmy

All I did was ask a question, and they removed it. Because a moderator said (on this particular board), they want support, rather than questions.

Why "ask"?

Be more honest. And more open and freedom oriented, to let people say whatever they want to say.

And if they put it on the wrong board, just change the post to a different one, and let the OP know, that this is the right board. So that they know what to do in the future. To make it easier on the poster.

I'm looking forward to you guys removing this one too ("not playing by the rules", even though it's right there in the title). And this is another question. Ask. It's about asking. You see the question mark at the end of the title? That's it right there. I am asking.

Brain injured person here, it's difficult for me to type clearly. I hope you have your empathy. Be well. Peace. ✌️

This community is explicitly not for support.

You are taking support to mean tech support. OP meant support as in rah rah I’m cheering for you. I’m that context, I have no idea what message the original post is supposed to convey.

At the end of the day though, that unfortunately still does not meet the requirements of posts for this community. For the moral support side, that would probably be better suited for one of the Fediverse communities.

AskLemmy is supposed to be the equivalent of AskReddit as defined by the mods, for better or for worse.

From the post before this that I can see from OP:

P.S. - I’ve seen posts from other people, within hours from now (so it appears to work with other people), but when I hit “App details” when searching for reviews and ratings for this app, it responds saying “Something went wrong - Try again”.

I really want to express everything comes through my mind, because thoughts flow through me all the time, and I’m looking for a website that accepts it.

Though I can't see what their original post that prompted that one was (I assume after it was removed by the mods, OP deleted it - since I'm an admin on my own instance I can still see posts that were removed by mods), I'm going to assume it was still not meeting the rules of the community.
