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. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Before having US citizenship, I probably would not mention any political things and like be vague about my location.
But now I have US Citizenship, and yes I know it's not a magic shield, but it's much better than non-citizens, so now I feel a bit more confident in just saying:
FUCK DONALD TRUMP, TREASONOUS PIECE OF SHIT
I have a lot of anecdotes and I really wanna share and that'll inevitibly make it easier to track me down... but whatever... I have no one irl that would wanna listen, so I'm gonna tell my story on the internet, leave a permanent mark in history. Hi future historians ๐
I already disclosed my ethnicity and city... I don't care anymore.
I feel safe sharingthe general area of where I previously lived.
But current location, yes I'd just be vague and the city is the most precise I'm comfortable sharing.
I mean some twitch streamers shate their face, name, and city and their address is still private, I should be fine since I'm a nobody and no names or face is shared.
But I'm still gonna guard my family secrets, well not the abusive things, that I need to vent about, but I'm not gonna tell you where my parents set up shop for example... don't want any shitheads doing vandalism.
Not gonna tell my name, not gonna show my face.
I mean, I doubt any normie is actually gonna be able to find me from a few anecdotes, you need a lot of government databases to find who I am.
The NSA, tho, I have no doubt that they can find me if targeted this account, but I'm not that scared, there are like a million anti-trump comments online, what are the odds that I get persecuted? (I'm gonna jinks it aren't I)
Hey if my address get leaked, I have an excuse to move xD, I'm getting tired of this place... but yea I'd try to not intentionally leak it.
