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.

Posting to Lemmy.world from Lemmy.ml results in only Lemmy.ml users being able to see that post, so I think they blocked each other. When do you think they will be federated again?

Lemmy.ml appears to be massively overloaded. Browsing their instance’s website results in network timeout errors. They haven’t applied the same fixes that lemmy.world has yet either. So, it’s not blocked, it’s just that lemmy.ml is currently unable to keep up with things.

You can see the list of blocked instances at /instances.

They are currently not blocked.

Many federation things are broken atm. i know of Multiple communitys that are behind hours or Multiple days both on lemmy.world and Kbin the instance owner says their server got tons of recources free so its federation related bugs i guess.

Probably not blocked, but broken/overloaded...

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

maybe never, this is going to be a thing on and off with the large instances, get on a smaller one with a neutral rep and youll be able to interact with the whole fediverse as long as you don't cross lines.

Exactly. Here's a great list to help people get started with choosing a different instance: https://github.com/maltfield/awesome-lemmy-instances

You can use this tool to check federation status in both directions: https://fba.ryona.agency/

Thanks. Fyi. The search is case sensitive

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

I'll probably end up in a totally defederated instance or another platform altogether the way things are looking.

I just read this morning that someone is spamming the hell out of lemmy.world from what looks like an attempted DDoS run with a ton of communities with a bunch of random post with no actual content.

[–] [email protected] -4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What's up with Lemmy.ml? Why would large instances block each other??? I'm genuinely confused

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

They didn't block each other. It's just a server error.
