!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.

I'm a little late to the party but keep in mind that people who stay on top of cleaning and have sparkling houses are doing just that and nothing else because it is so time consuming. You don't want to invest all your free time (or all your time) into cleaning that will never end. Good enough is good enough.
Not true, it takes me a moment to put away my things into drawers and tidy up after myself.
Not sure why you got downvoted as cleaning efficiently and maintaining things as you go (rinsing off stuff as you cook for example) makes the whole process so much faster.
For example imagine you're going through your clothes looking for an outfit to wear for the night. You can either dump all your clothes into a pile while trying things on or try them on and hang them up as you go. That way when you're done, you don't have a pile of clothes to deal with.
That's not what I mean, I'm not talking about tidying up, I'm talking about proper cleaning, as in wiping the dust everywhere and keeping every imaginable surface clean, including walls, ceilings, cupboards etc.
I think wiping walls and stuff are only things people do quarterly, every 6 months, etc and not something people do weekly as that is insane.
My mom does and yes, it is insane, and she spends all her time doing it. What I mean to say is there's no limit to cleaning unless you set it up for yourself. For the sake of sanity it's better to accept the fact that there will always be some dust around.
