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.

It's going fine. There's enough content to keep me entertained and not rely on Reddit at all.
How to help fuck up Reddit's IPO:
Man, the reason we searched for xyz reddit, instead of xyz, is because Google is junk now.
Yes but it's possible to work around that "junkness" without Reddit. At least partially. (I know from blacklisting Reddit from Google results for years.)
Honestly I Google very infrequently with chatgpt available now. Even then I always use duck duck go over Google.
These are awesome suggestions. I have a 9 year old Reddit account and I'd love to nuke all the content I've ever contributed. Unfortunately without push shift I don't think it's even possible to get at anything more than a couple years back, but I research that tool.
If you happen to still have a Reddit account, could you check if the tool that I've linked still works, after the API closed? You don't need to trash all the content to test this, just post something to profile and then remove specifically that post.
Sorry for asking this, but I'm wondering if I should still suggest the tool, and I can't test this out because I don't have a Reddit acc any more.
It is - up to March/2023.
I'll try to put in some time to test this soon. I really want my account completely wiped out. I did a California data request through the official reddit channels, but they only gave me my data back to 2021. Ideally I'd like to archive all my comments, and then wipe everything, but I'll settle for whatever I can get at this point.
