No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!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.

It's not intuitive for a reddit user combined with overloaded servers not being very responsive to search requests, makes for people thinking they need multiple accounts.
There are some communities I've been trying all weekend to get to from lemmy.one unsuccessfully.
Completely agree it's not intuitive at all, and not clear that searching requires at least 2 presses of the button to do everything on the backend. I only know because I came across a random comment in an issue on github.
I have noticed that some are pretty slow, but the most I've had to wait after hitting search is 20 or so seconds before the result comes up. Is there a particular instance you haven't been able to search from? I'm curious if I'll have the same trouble, and if the issue is communications between, or just load.
I'm finding oddities. My friend linked me https://lemmy.world/c/hfy. I search the url, I searched [email protected], and was finally only able to subscribe when I searched just "hfy" and it came up listed as "Humanity Fuck [email protected] - 4 subscribers", even though when you click through it's listed as [email protected].
Trying to sub to https://lemmyfly.org/c/aviation did the same thing to me. If I search "[email protected]" nothing comes up but if I search just "aviation" it appears (since there's multiple people on my server subscribed).
Anything lemmy.ml my server is already aware of is in perpertual "Pending Subscription".
And mostly out of curiosity I've been trying to subscribe to a kbin magazine from lemmy.one (since that's supposed to be possible) with 0 luck.
