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.

The filter I use to hide threads based on keywords doesn't seem to work for urls but I'm sure this is possible aswell.

You mean for Lemmy, or general web browsing?

If it's for Lemmy, I can't help you with ublock, but this Tampermonkey script works perfectly: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/471718-lemmy-post-keyword-filter

Yeah I mean Lemmy. I'd rather not install new add-ons when I'm pretty sure uBlock Origin can do this aswell.

Userscript loaders are fine, they don't do anything on their own, they just load custom user-defined JavaScript on a specified website. Just make sure not to use Tampermonkey, it's proprietary. Use Violentmonkey instead, it's completely open source on GitHub.

That's the first time I've heard that Tampermonkey is collecting user data. Could you please elaborate on that? I'm currently using it and will definitely switch if that is the case.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Oh I'm very sorry, I confused Tampermonkey with another extension that stole user data. Tampermonkey is still proprietary though, which was my reason for avoiding it. Violentmonkey works just as well, but it's open source.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

Ah. Alright, definitely will switch to the open source alternative.
