A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world
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.

Please describe your links, why and what you linked. Next time it will be blacklisted without warning if not done.
On a community level or a site level? I'm confused, this is the first time I've seen anyone told that (it's always relevant if wondering).
You just simply send a random untrusted link. And we are currently VERY harsh on random links send here. If its youtube yeah of course we know its a video. A link to google yeah its a google. But a random link we as an admin dont want to check whats in there and we will just remove it, if we cant determine otherwise it. ( the link is just a java maven repository )
Do you have a list of automatic trusted sites?
If its a common known website ( like youtube, instagram, imgur.... ) then its all good not to say anything but if you do a neiche or a unknown link to a platform only few people know, it should be clarified where and what it leads to. In your case a forum post about a discussion about you and someone else.
Does the commonality factor exclude being able to link to scattered parts of the fediverse (which is not too common yet)?
No, because there are BAD fediverse parts and if you dont warn before it or its a weird url, then describe it.
