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.

I think you believe that this is a big problem that a large portion of the population here experience, but it’s really not. I have no idea what you’re talking about. Going by some of the replies, lots of other folks don’t either.
We cannot help you if we don’t know what you’re talking about, and we won’t better understand what you’re talking about unless you give us more information. That’s it, really.
You can help, if you're able to. Not wanting to help with this is something different.
I explained that my comments are being deleted. No one needs to know what every single comment I posted is, in order to suggest a text character that works. I already gave some examples, but people are demanding more. No matter what I say, they refuse to help.
Btw it does happen to a lot of people, and I've seen lots of people complaining of it in comments sections as well as on Reddit.
As @princessleiascat said, I think you're assuming that most people can relate to this, but the truth is that they can't. I've never had a comment deleted from YouTube - ever.
As a creator, I've deleted the occasional comment someone else has made on my content, though.
This is why most people are defaulting to the position that maybe it's more about what you are writing, rather than a broken system.
Do you need to have been in a situation yourself in order to empathise with it?
Furthermore, must you understand something completely in order to provide help?
Look this is a free platform and I appreciate people even commented on this post. But these comments assuming the worst of me and not believing me that my comments are harmless and refusing to even want to help are hurtful. It makes me feel like, what if someone was being attacked by AI in a really crazy way. Not that this is that. But, have mercy on that person. Because if people choose to trust in technology more than human beings, I think we're honestly doomed.
I have no idea what you posted so I cannot help.
And it makes no difference to me if everyone is talking about it or not - I still have no idea what you’re talking about.
I don't know why you're saying that you need to know what things I've commented in order to help me find an alternate character text that doesnt get deleted. It's literally random innocuous things. Like for example I could say "Maybe one day electric cars will be much faster than gas powered cars" and it gets deleted.
Have you ever been in a situation where no one believes you even though you know you're innocent? That's what this is for me.
These lots of people are a very specific bubble: the idiots who can't behave on the internet. All the others don't have that issue.
It's also not autoblocking by Youtube, but you being banned by channel admins. They use bots to automatically delete any content an user posted who already posted multiple dumb/offensive/toxic posts.
Changing the letters to some similar looking letters won't help you, because YOU are banned.
If by your own admission 50% of your posts are questionable at best, you deserve bans.
I did not say 50% of my comments are questionable. I said about that many get removed for no reason despite being harmless. It's you who is making negative assumptions about a human being and choosing to put all your faith in technology and AI to work correctly when it clearly doesn't. And no, again, it's not channels. Channel owners have confirmed to me they're not deleting my comments and they don't know why they get removed.
