Ask Lemmy
26282 readers
1328 users here now
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

MODERATORS
Many different Lemmy servers have an announcements community, but just because they have similar naming doesn't mean they serve the same purpose or should be merged.
The idea of monopolizing subreddit names like /r/askreddit needs to die. If you like one asklemmy over the other subscribe to it and not the other and let your vote dictate which community is the true embodiment of /r/AskReddit. Or subscribe to both: no different than it would have been being subscribed to both /r/technology and /r/tech. Similar communities with different mods, mod rules, and slightly different purposes.
In addition, even if the communities are built around the same content, not every instance is the same. I explicitly avoid lemmy.ml because I've seen them ban people for criticizing China's government and discussing the genocide of the Uyghur people. As such, I appreciate having a lemmy.world variant of this community.
