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.

I wanted to download them to make a avatar builder for lemmy. I could get all of the SVGs through the inspect element, but I wanted to see if anyone did this before.

  1. Copyright violation ✅
  2. Promoting the bad site ✅
  3. Waste of scarce developer resources ✅
[–] [email protected] 10 points 18 hours ago

Copyright is stupid, but besides that I agree. We should be developing our own identity, not trying to copy reddit

Lemmy hosts are business use.

Lemmy users are personal use.

copyright violation

Copyright Violation is a good thing. Fuck the rich stop being a cuck for corpos.

Scarce developer resources

He wants to make it, his resources are his to waste. I wrote a bash script that sends cowsay to mail, it's utterly useless, but i liked making it. I didn't waste shit except my own time and it's mine to "waste".

Copyright violation

ok.

Promoting the bad site

I don't see how it would promote the other website, its literally for lemmy (I would replace the snoo heads with the lemmy rat)

[–] [email protected] 13 points 19 hours ago (6 children)

Why are you trying to copy their style?

Lemmy should be less like the bad site.

We should celebrate content, not users’ egos.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 13 hours ago

We should celebrate content, not users’ egos.

You're posting with an avatar right now. Why do you have a problem with OP wanting to help other users create avatars?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 19 hours ago (2 children)

Totally agree. We need to be less like them. We don't need gimmicks. Let's focus on the content, and a decent community. Kind of like Reddit before all the avatars, chat features, gold, followers, etc.... After all, those features were only added to Reddit to make it sell.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago) (1 children)

Yeah great content, OP asks a simple question and every answer is a circlejerk of idiots telling him he's wrong for even wondering about something. We did it Patrick! We saved the internet!

[–] [email protected] -2 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

I don’t see you providing an answer.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 hours ago

I don't know the answer.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 18 hours ago

I think followers and chat are a good idea because I could follow my friends and share memes directly to them through Lemmy rather than have to download and share it externally. But besides that yeah

[–] [email protected] 3 points 19 hours ago

I just like the cute avatars and think something similar would nice on lemmy.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago)

Oh fuck off man let the guy do what he wants. Are you like literally upset by someone wanting to make somehing that vaguely looks like the logo of some website? Log off man.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 18 hours ago

Also snoo is lame AF. I really hate those avatars.
