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.

Lemmy seems to be incredibly slow, 2+ second delay in any action through lemmy.world even after restarting the browser. it wasnt like this the other day but now its basically unusable. Any suggestions?

Its the teething pains of the network growing, servers talking to each other, catching up on posts, comments, votes, etc.

A lot of improvement will have to come from lemmy itself getting updates that make it run more efficiently.

Nope, still happening :( although it appears now to only be occurring on the main page/feed. in this thread I dont see the same issues

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Sounds like it's on the server end. I wouldn't be surprised if they were doing some maintenance in the background. You may just have to be patient.

Same here. Just started today.

It is using a lot of memory in Firefox.

edit - There was an update for FF available. It seems to have resolved the issue.
edit2 - not resolved. Issue occurs when home page is loaded. CPU and memory usage increase. Memory continues to increase until FF hangs. If I switch page to a community CPU returns to normal and memory slowly goes back to normal.

Try hosting your own instance. I think Lemmy.world is getting overloaded

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I would guess this is not a Lemmy problem. Probably some of the instances are a bit overloaded at the moment. Here on dbzer0 I don't experiece any of that.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yes, I think they are a bit overloaded. Federation is also a bit of a hit and miss. Federating in is fine, getting stuff out is delayed a bit.

Use a smaller instance. 😅 One that's local to you ideally.

I would try clear your cache.
