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.

I went over to the Christmas markets for a week, a few years back. As a result, I did not meet any Germans and am unable to answer the question.
You were on a Christmas market and met no Germans there? What kind of sorcery is this?
I assume he was too drunk from Glühwein and therefore cannot remember anything.
Oooh, that on the other hand sounds like a typical Christmas market experience
It was a bad joke about most of the stalls being run by (lovely and very generous) immigrants and the rest of the markets being tourists!
In reality everyone we met was lovely. The food was to die for. And it snowed. 10/10 trip honestly and looking forward to going back soon!
That went completely over my head :D
Which did you visit so far and have you decided which will be next?
We went to Stuttgart, Baden Baden, and then took a long car trip to Munich. We stopped at some little towns here and there too but I don't remember all the names. And we crossed into Luxembourg briefly if I recall correctly.
I'd recommend all of them but the Baden natural spa is something to behold and the town itself it impossibly beautiful in places.
Next time will likely be the north end of the country. I'd love to go to Hanover as my mother lived there as a child while her father was on assignment post-war.
That sounds like a nice trip. You skipped my home, when you toured through the South, but Stuttgart is fine (in winter). After going to the North, you may want to look into parts of Eastern Germany like the Erzgebirge though you should stay in the touristy areas there if you have a darker skin color and / or are part of the lgbtqi+ community. This area is as beautiful as it's backwards.
I've added it to the starred map! Thanks!
