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.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Probably some central home page. That has a set of communities.
I think the most common complaint from new users is that it's too complicated and "I can't find anything"
If there was just a reddit front page esque thing going on I think the barrier to entry would be lower.
I use Kbin, so my experience is a little different, but do Lemmy instances not have default communities? If not, that seems like a pretty good addition, but if so, then I think that experience is going to be largely dictated by the individual instance you're signing up with.
FREE PIZZA!
If the goddamn TLDR bot updated regularly and if it appeared on every post with an article within 5 min.
More diverse politics stances rather than just commies and liberals
That’s not very “owns the means of production” of you.
But all joking aside, there’s something fundamentally socialist about the fediverse. Like it’s by design decentralized to let people own their instance.
Honestly I just and less politics. More diverse just means more fighting. I just want less politics in subs that are not inherently political.
Oh man... you're speaking directly to why I made Actual Discussion (consider this a personal invite).
We frequently get one-time posters coming in and flaming (or downvoting without reading) on any thread that may not agree with them, then when challenged with sources, they vanish. It's brutal. I wish we could disable certain behaviours on our instance or in the Community itself.
I should be able to "hide read posts" and not have it apply to my own posts/comments in my profile.
