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.

Great thread. I'm just reading and watching stuff this afternoon now
Glad you are enjoying it! Please feel free to share any other channels like Computerphile, Numberphile, Mutual Information, & Veritasium. It's difficult to find gems nowadays on YT.
I like Stand-up Maths, usually starts with a real-life situation and escalates into proper math, sometimes also programming shows up.
Well, if you ever want to find some more mathtubers, just browse the #SoMe2 or #SoMe3 hashtags on YouTube. It led me to Morphocular, who does great videos with great visual quality similar to 3B1B. Another great channel is Another Roof with a completely different approach of videomaking. VSauce also has some good videos on math topics, if you like him.
As mentioned by @Blyfh, 3Blue 1Brown is great.
I also came across this channel by Freya Holmér recently that does more Long Lecture videos on math for video game programmers. I found the the one on splines to be quite enlightening (as I had recently been doing a lot of spline stuff and struggling with third party packages).

I can't claim it's as high quality as the channels you've mentioned, but I actually have a channel! I only have one video at the moment, because they take a long time to make, but I'm planning on having the next one out perhaps within the next month.

Late to the party but one channel I came across was Combo Class, who should get more love! I adore his setup and his passion for weird maths stuff.
Absolutely strange in the most endearing way.
