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.

Upper screenshot is looged in - last post shows up in !3dprinting@lemmy.world as 10 days old. Next one is 6 months old!! Lower screenshot is logged out - there's a bunch of new posts dating a couple of hours ago.

I picked 3dprinting community just as an example - it happens all the time (sometimes communitys have number of posts displayed but they load as empty)

I changed language in profile settings to "undetermined", tried some other stuff but nothing seems to do anything. Please help!

Have you checked that you haven't blocked the person posting?

Also, those posts in the signed out view all have the English tag set, you may need to go into your settings and add English to your selected languages. Keep Undetermined selected as a fallback for when people do not set a language for their posts/comments.

Yeah I didn't block them for sure

Hmm so undetermined only shows "undetirmined"-language posts, not all of them?

Edit: thank you so much!! It worked like a charm

By default, you see all languages.

If you specifically selected Undetermined, other languages will be hidden. In this case you need to select both Undetermined and English

[–] ultrahamster64@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'm a bit confused, because there is like a yellow box that says

Warning: If you deselect Undetermined, you will not see most content.

So if I deselect all languages am I going to see everything or nothing?

[–] manucode@infosec.pub 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That warning is for people who e.g. select English but not Undetermined. If you select no language at all, the warning should not apply to you and you should see all posts.

[–] ultrahamster64@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Oooh I see. Thanks! Deselected all of them and now I can see all posts!!
