!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:
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.

I like video games, but not the newest, shiniest AAA title, but rather the smaller and older gems. Therefore [email protected] is a nice community since I also like to read what other gamers think about their favorites.
Another recommendation is [email protected] where PugJesus often gives an explanation to their meme. Thereby you learn and laugh.
+1 for patient gamers too. It’s a great community with great discussion. I don’t think I’ve had a single bad interaction on there
PJ is so funny
It's fun to help others who can't quite put their finger on something.
Thanks. I've joined there too
Really nice for just seeing stuff. Not the highs or lows of life, just the pleasantly mundane.
There's the saying 'May you live in interesting time's which is actually a curse, I reckon I'm up for a bit of not interesting.
I mean, if you like Stardew Valley I feel like you're probably already part of the community. And if you DON'T like Stardew Valley? Well then clearly you have no good taste in life, and you maybe should leave earth forever. Ok, that's a bit dramatic, but......no, ya know what? I stand by it. We'll build a rocket, and put all the Stardew Valley haters on it, and fire it to Mars.....Not like it needs to be safely built, or have enough fuel. It just needs to get off this planet, and get far enough away from earth that it's explosion won't affect the rest of us still living our lives on earth.
I think you should have a look at how the Golfafrinchans launched their rockets and maybe take a leaf out of their book. I hope I'm not on the same level as telephone sanitisers.
superbowl is the best.
Lemmy is still small enough that I just browse "All" all the time, and when I run across a community I know I won't read, I block it. Like anime stuff is fine, it's just not my jam so I block it and then whatever else shows up in "All" I'll see.
meh. I honestly don't feel there should be any communities that everyone should join. I view it like clubs at a university. when you scroll all its like walking around on the quad that day when every group has a table. You check them out and maybe join some and maybe back away slowly from. Others your not sure. You join some and are super into it and help out and maybe take on a position and others you just come to meetings and hang out a bit. Other times you happen to pass by a gathering for something you were not part of but it looks neat so you drop in.
I get that and have sort of looked around by browsing local and all by top 12 hours or so, but I was hoping for peoples personal recommendations of communities they found that might not be obvious in the quadrangle, or have that many posts or great signs to recruit people, but those that are involved love it. In your description I'm trying to make this post to be the equivalent of asking seniors walking around what clubs they recommend.
you make a good point. I seem to recall a thing where an instance won't pull things if no one is subscribed or some such so I can see it being very possible to miss things. So you have convinced me. All said though I don't have any recommendations. Im subscribed to a few things but not many yet and are pretty specific niche things I like mbin meta, pathfinder, and free video games.
Did you see lemmyverse.net ?
Thanks. No I haven't, but after a quick look, I think I'll go back and browse there later.
Thank you I've subscribed to both. I might go back into casual conversation and put my new years goals under the post a few days ago
I wouldn't recommend communities I like to others.
"I would never join a club that would be willing to have ME as a member...."
Because it's among the few communities I miss from Reddit.
... it's dead though?
It dies down when people stop posting but every post there receives replies.
