Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics. If you need to do this, try [email protected]
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 [email protected] or [email protected].
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 [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

I get that it's annoying, but we're sad, and angry, and scared, and we don't know where to go. Maybe someone will make us a community called "Now what?" where we can cry, shout, wallow a bit, and then make a plan for survival.
Two posts for you
[email protected] seems good as it allows self-posts
[email protected] for news
Be the change you want to see then. You can make that community. I mean this in a supportive way. Go for it!

I appreciate the confidence and encouragement, but I'm completely unqualified. I'm likely the least techie lemmy user. If there were tech levels, I would in the 'I can set up a printer about 60% of the time' category.
If you remind me later - I have to get ready for work soon - I'll help you if you want. Its fairly easy. Easier than a printer, so you're already qualified lol
Yeah I think both are valid tbh. I get that a lot of people don't want to hear and and I get that a lot of people are upset. How do you compromise and help with both?
Easy, don't make rules banning the subjects people want to talk about. Are we so concerned about people's thumbs we can ask them to just scroll past content that doesn't interest them but suits the theme of the community?
