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.

i'm still scratching my head about things like: the difference between "hot" and "top" because they have different definitions from instance to instance; sometimes i can't subscribe to another's instance's communities without creating a user account on that instance despite seeing them in the "all" filter in the first instance; and the very heavy mainstream dominant viewpoint on the fediverse that completely drowns out anything else.
This should only be the case if the 2 instances aren't federating together. it might be a specific bug, can you give more context on what you couldn't do?
it's happened so many times it feels like the norm so i can't remember; but it's bound to happen again and now that i know it's not meant to work this way i can come back and update when it happens again.
