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

Temu looks SUPER sketchy to me. All of those "down load our app!" and "Just one more for 70% off!" deals and so on. I've never been to Temu, found an item, and checked out.
AliExpress and Ebay actually let you BUY things.
I haven't used Temu to compare, but AliExpress's website bombards you with about 3 coupon or app popups upon loading it as well. That and the constant combo deals they're pushing with a browsing UI straight from my nightmares.
I've never seen those in AE. Must be my ad blocker. I have to purposefully dig the messages to find cupon deals, not that I ever used any.
The browsing UI, well, I'll give you that one. It sucks. Especially the search function, it won't show you the product you just saw five minutes ago even if you type its exact listing name on it.
