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.

My own admission?
I think you've seriously misread what kind of person you're talking to. I am by no means in favor of the current norm of every communication app in existence being or becoming "AI" driven doom-scrolling traps. They're following the money, and hence all doing the same thing... Not one is still functioning with communication as goal number one.
The people are already rejecting them. But it will be so fucking slow. For years to come, people will still be going onto twitter and facebook to see what the world has to say. Even if it says nothing, as long as there is content, many will just keep going as usual.
When phones and mail were the norm, everyone happily paid to be heard beyond where just their voice can reach. Not so much today. Today, if you can't complain to millions that your coffee got cold this morning, some think that's a violation of your right to free speech.
I very much look forward to a future where social media is an open standard, which anyone can access. One which we pay for, where appropriate, instead of commercialize or demand out of thin air. I imagine one day, protocols like ActivityPub powering government run, taxpayer funded, official instances of communication software, which federates with private, independent and other national instances, alike.
Or even just a posting script that speaks the right API someone threw together in an afternoon.
Agree, I think there is just some talking past each other here, and I'm glad you have a head about you to keep it from devolving while I act a fool.
