There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!

Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.


Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca still apply!


Thanks for reading all of this, even if you didn't read all of this, and your eye started somewhere else, have a watermelon slice ๐Ÿ‰.

Also, I assume it would be for lemmy as a whole and not just my instance right?

I think having an option for posts to have tags would be neat and make it easier to find more fitting posts since the title won't always have the word you're looking for.

That's a cool idea. I'm not sure how many people would spend the extra time to tag their posts though.

You'd be surprised, especially depending on the community

Even a small chunk would be useful, I think the main problem might be moderating the tags? Maybe people can downvote tags to show they're not fitting

I love the idea. I can see how it could be abused, but that's true of anything when you get a group of humans together. I think your moderation idea could work.

The Lemmy GitHub repo is here https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy, and there is an Issues section for bug reports and feature requests.

@[email protected] It's actually split into separate repos for back-end and front-end, the latter being https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues
and this is the Jerboa project: https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/issues

I think I have generally seen such things put here. Apologies as I have not yet successfully made a good link yet. It looks like somebody has spammed a few messages, but if you scroll down you will see discussion about Lemmy and its development.
