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.
6) No US Politics.

I was scrolling Lemmy earlier and saw the porn Spam. Fucking disgusting, and then for some reason I got more than 100 DMs telling me to kill myself. I don't know if that counts but this is really not what I signed up for when joining Lemmy. I just want to scroll and see funny memes, maybe hear about or learn interesting stuff.
You gotta block what you don't wanna see or choose an instance that has similar values to you as they'll be defederated from a lot of shit you don't wanna see.
did see the dickpic shit, due to not much auto moderation there are quite a few of those...
the DM thing is weird, i never got any.. (other than the nicole spam) perhaps you triggered some weird person :/
You see ads? Have you tried ublockorigin?
It wasn't an ad, it was a disgusting spam user spamming pictures of their penis everywhere.
Oh, huh, weird, misunderstood you some how. When on the all posts there are a lot of porn related ones, they aren't hardly worth clicking on, if I want porn I can go to the porn video sites, more there than you can shake a stick at. Yeah I learned my lesson clicking on any of the nsfw ones because it might not be something you want to see.
