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.

MODERATORS
I’ve actually made the experience that, at least where I live, it’s mostly people in their 40s - 60s that talk on their phone on speaker or play candy crush on full volume in the bus. While teenagers and younger people are much more respectful, use headphones etc.
Agreed. Every time I've been trying to have a nice dinner and some asshole is at the next table blasting their game or having a loud speakerphone conversation, they're middle-aged or older. Kids either have headphones or have it on mute.
Older people tend to just shout a lot because they refuse to protect their hearing, with young people it's either just straight up immaturity or they have issues at home and that results in them actively enjoying being a dick for various reasons.
