Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
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.

Tips: Buy things butcheries throw away and make broth with them (scoop out fat when cold and use in place of butter or oil, use the broth to make soup). Make your own mayo. Buy vegetables you normally wouldn't when they are cheap, and figure out a recipe for them, or pickle them in jars! Get away with throwing as little away as you can, make stock with scraps (make sure they are clean of any dirt). Walk and take note of any plants or trees yielding edible fruits, nuts and leaves, take note of when it's best to harvest them, you never know what you have until you start looking. Get a small planter (or cut one out of a large plastic container) and try growing some plants from seeds you'd normally throw away, feed them kitchen scraps and leaves, it may take some time to get going, but it's worth it for the nutrition and freebies.
