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.

German here. It is indeed one user who missed pizza day today at work, posting many pizza memes in a short time.

The German community on Lemmy is rebuilding at the moment as their main server feddit.de was abandoned by its admin. Now the communities are slowly transitioning over to feddit.org. During that process, single users can be largely overrepresented until the communities found a balance.

I am not sure but I think you can disable certain languages somewhere in your user settings, so that German communities should not reach you anymor3.

It's fine I actually like seeing all the posts from Germany and France and the UK, it was just weird to see the same meme show up so many times with no explanation lol

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

(Not so) fun fact: his posts actually worked. Not in the way that he got pizza day back, but in the way that I ordered some. I wasn't even that hungry >.<

[–] Lost_My_Mind 2 points 1 day ago

Well that was SENSELESS!

...........now where did the unicorns go? I heard they need their daily creamed corn!!!

[–] Lost_My_Mind 2 points 1 day ago

Ok guys. New plan. We "Truman Show" this guy, except we all join together and celebrate a new global holiday. Pizza Day! And we do it on this guys birthday. No prior notice, no online discussion. We just all celebrate pizza day, and gaslight him for never hearing of it before.

But we do it all day. Just around him. And then the next day we do not understand what he's talking about.

BUT NOBODY OFFER HIM PIZZA!!! AND NOBODY SELL HIM PIZZA!!!

Lets see if we can drive him crazy in 48 hours.

American here. I love the German meme communities if even I don't always understand the joke. Thanks for letting us know how you guys are doing and I hope everyone lands safely in the new server.

Sad to hear. As a German living in the Ausland for many decades its nice to see the Germans chat on here. Good luck with the transition.

Didn't realize it was happening, is there a post somewhere about it that I can link people to?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

various communities on feddit.de have a pinned post on it

e.g.: c/dach

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 day ago (1 children)

pizza day was canceled so they made those memes.

germany has an official repeating two week long meal plan which allways ends with pizza day. not adhering to the official plan is considered a crime and could be punished with two years in jail, a fine of 200 000 € or in especially bad cases with the revocation of ones drivers license.

nah, apparently the user works on sundays and get pizza at their workplace, but not today.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

Do they at least get one day of shoukshouka for breakfast?

[–] Lost_My_Mind 2 points 1 day ago

You didn't have me in the first half. Saw right through that lie.

[–] tamal3 1 points 1 day ago

I got got. Germany is exotic to me, and I'm gullible.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Isn't it just the same user spamming the community?

[–] Lost_My_Mind 5 points 1 day ago

No, not spam. Pizza!!! Spam comes in a can, and can best be described as "not good enough to be cat food".

Pizza is delicious, and Itaily should be proud.

[–] Lost_My_Mind -1 points 1 day ago

Wtf Germany?

If you think THATS bad, wait until you see what they were doing between 1936-1945.

Still though.....I'd be mad too if my pizza day were taken away.
