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.

You COULD invest in an enterprise grade shoe rack unit which can act as the centeralized hub. Essentially, all users would connect with the server each time they need a shoe. As you note, distributed shoe storage technology exists, but there are actually a few different implementation strategies.
One option is to retrofit an area in the personal closet for shoes. This has the advantage of keeping each user's shoes away and out of reach from threat actors who wish to gain access to the shoes. A disadvantage occurs when there are poor weather conditions. The strategy there is to leave the shoes outside to dry.
Another option is to implement the strategy you outlined and practice a door-first shoe storage policy. Slides near the doors, work boots at the back door, and nicer shoes at the front door. In cases where shoe resources are over assigned, you would construct a priority chart to ensure that the shoes (usually slides) are stored at the door where they are most needed.
Another popular option in my region is to forgo shoes outside if you're staying within the household property. Depending on a user's mass, testicular fortitude, and the surrounding terrain, it is actually quite possible to take the rubbish to a wheely bin while walking over perfectly smooth pavement. Just wipe your feet a bit when going inside.
There are also homebrew hybrid solutions which mix and match any of the above, but be warned that a novel approach might have limited community support.
