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.

You can access all posts from (most) any instance. For example, you are currently posting to a lemmy.world community and I'm replying to you from lemmy.world, but you are browsing from sh.itjust.works. This is fine and how it is expected to work.
So, there isn't much reason to have multiple accounts, but it also doesn't hurt to have multiple.
There isn't much reason in the future but right now with the massive delay in instances syncing with each other, it's hard to say that
I will keep this in mind if one instance is down or delaying my user experience, I can always switch to another instance. Thank you for responding!
Just to add to this if your instance(sh.itjust.works) want to block lemmy.ca cause the those Canadians are the worse then you won't see their communities. You can sign in on lemmy.world where they have not block/defederate Lemmy.ca see the posts there.
Most of the time the instance will block/defederate other instances to protect their communities/members. Like if Lemmy.ca asked Lemmy.notCa to control their maple-deniers members that posts "Maple syrup is a hoax", and Lemmy.notCa refused, the Lemmy.ca can defederate/block Lemmy.notCa.
