A loosely moderated place to ask open-ended questions
If your post meets the following criteria, it's welcome here!
- Open-ended question
- Not offensive: at this point, we do not have the bandwidth to moderate overtly political discussions. Assume best intent and be excellent to each other.
- Not regarding using or support for Lemmy: context, see the list of support communities and tools for finding communities below
- Not ad nauseam inducing: please make sure it is a question that would be new to most members
- An actual topic of discussion
Looking for support?
Looking for a community?
- Lemmyverse: community search
- sub.rehab: maps old subreddits to fediverse options, marks official as such

This is not a technical support community
If you could point me to the posting rules, I would be grateful so I can better find the best community next time.
I assumed AskLemmy implied you could ask anything, evidently I am wrong but I’m happy to learn how to understand the posting rules for each community.
I cannot point you to the rules, because every lemmy client is different. But if you are on the website with a desktop browser, it's in the sidebar. I wrote a quick guide about this topic a short while ago: https://nx2.site/guide-to-the-ask-communities
Ah, so I found the rules for this sub and I don’t see one that would have prevented me from asking my question.
The rules said no support for lemmy questions, which mine wasn’t.
I guess you could argue rule 5 if you’re being pedantic, the rule about creates discussion. Which I would argue my question did.
Thanks for pointing me in the correct place.
