A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

Rules: (interactive)

1) Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them

2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected]. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

6) No US Politics.

Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try [email protected] or [email protected]

Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Do you donate money? How, why, why not? (self.asklemmy)

I was thinking about it. I donate to quite a few charities, but they specifically mean something to me. Others I don't really think about, though they're good. I guess we all have a threshold or we'd be broke and for many that could be no donations at all or just a fiver the the street guy.

Hehe caveats definitely apply, like if you are talking to someone only over the phone, then maybe don't say that one 😜 😉.

But it's a good thought.

And in certain tones and context, a man saying the last one to a woman could sound a bit predatory. I'm sure you'll use good judgement.

Oh dear I didn't even think of that 🫠. LET THE MURDER GAMES COMMENCE! 🔪 (I'll offer you a 2s head start, beginning... NOW!)

Speaking of, I saw a post today that lead me to check out Reddit for the first time in months... damn we sure do have much more friendly conversations here! It's enough to make me forget all the years of toxicity there, towards the end. 🙃
