[email protected] is good one really

Basically post whatever

The rule of the community is post before you leave

Not sure if I understand correctly, but it seems that 196 may have a home for what you're maybe describing

I'd recommend https://lemmy.world/c/general it's a community for general discussion and people seem to post whatever with no problem.

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]

Do non-Lemmy communities count? Or are you just looking for places on Lemmy?

At least in KBin/Mbin instances there are magazines called "Random" by default that include an non-taghed microblog posts and threads.

It's also effectively unusable and largely full of spam, as a result. Blocking that magazine makes browsing the All feed actually functionable.

I don't have it blocked and have not noticed a whole lot coming out of it. I actually thought most of it seems to be posts that somehow did not get posted to intended groups and wound up there. Like maybe the tags messed up.

I think my instance kbin.run may have it blocked from the all feed by default.

I meant no stupid question is meant for random stuff and you can post there. But there is one rule: It has to be a (legitimate) question.
