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. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

I believe every post on here goes to Mastodon, as long as the community is being followed by someone on Mastodon or your account is being followed by someone on Mastodon.

Yes, l just saw itπŸ€“πŸ€“πŸ€“

From my understanding, you can’t post to an instance, until someone from that instance either subscribes to your lemmy account or the community or search for it. This will force the intance to pull your post to that instance.

Hmmm, it appears that I can see you on Mastadon, but the comment I made on there doesn't seem to federate back.

Screenshot as proof, and link to my comment: https://mastodon.social/@ekky/114401045155643538

I think I see your Mastodon post here just fine? Maybe syncing needs some time.

[–] ekky@sopuli.xyz 2 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

I still cannot see it from lemmy, even when using a webbrowser. :/

I can see that debaashish@mastadon.social has responded to my comment made from mastadon, could you please try to respond to it too?

For clarity, the comment made by ekky@sopuli.xyz (the one you just responded to) was just in case people could not see the comment made by ekky@mastadon.social

Also, the image of my lemmy comment doesn't seem to show on mastadon.

That's meπŸ€“πŸ€“πŸ€“ l responded to you from my Mastodon account πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒ

[–] ekky@sopuli.xyz 3 points 9 hours ago

Had a hunch that might've been you! At least it works one way, which I suppose was what you asked about. :)

Though, would be nice if I also could see my mastadon comments on lemmy. :/

I knew mastodon connected to pixelfed, but never Lemmy. Huh.

People do post on lemmy from Mastodon/miss key, and you can follow a lemmy community from Mastodon. It's not ergonomic but possible.

If you use mbin rather than lemmy, you can even follow Mastodon users
