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.

Music was much better when I was younger and more emotionally vulnerable.
I also like music from before my time, when they used to let ugly people make it.
It's complicated.
Maybe you are just bad at finding new music you like. There's an insane amount out there.
The people who make good music are still mostly not conventionally beautiful.
There's like 3 regular-looking Swedes who make just about all popular music, isn't there?

Reconsider that statement. Outside of top40 there's no shortage of unattractive artists making amazing music. Music has always ranged from bad to good and ugly to attractive in about the same proportion
Are you implying only cute or handsome people do "music" nowadays? Because that is not true at all.
"when they used to let ugly people make it" funny comment, sad but true.
Funny comment but completely untrue, goddamn lol
Listen beyond what top40 stations play for you.
Bruh why anyone bothers with top 40 when you can find whatever the hell you want out of millions of artists on the internet. It's not even overwhelming there's tools that will pick out stuff for you based on criteria you choose. Really just need to find one or two less known artists you like and then from there look at other offerings from their labels, bands they tour with, etc. It all snowballs. So much great music to be found.
Because people are under the false assumption that getting into music is a passive activity. It's like saying food is boring because all they eat is microwave dinners... Actually it's worse than that because hearing new music is FREE
I don't care if people only listen to top40 but to act like that's the ONLY music out there is just stupid
Dude the internet exists. You’re on it now. It’s not hard to find shit you enjoy if you put some time into it. Find a local scene. Enjoy music.
Um... You know there's millions of indie artists who are ugly making just what you are looking for, right? I listen to music all day, hardly any of it mainstream. Most of the really popular stuff is worse than a lot of the independent or small label stuff you'll find.
