It's fine IMO. Traffic isn't high enough for a split to make sense

From the sidebar:
We ask that if you do a help request please add [help] to the start of the post to help differentiate it from the rest of the posts until we get a flair system in
Yeah, I have more conversational questions, not help.
This is a collecting community that gets every topic in the instance (so people can go to it and then be naturally sent into the other ones in the instance) so questions in here are fine.
The main question communities in the instance though are:
!no_stupid_questions@programming.dev
!ask_experienced_devs@programming.dev
!cs_career_questions@programming.dev
Oh sorry, I mean more conversational questions like the old stuff on reddit /r/askreddit , /r/askwomen, /r/askmen but instead /c/askdevs. Are those kinds of questions fine here?
Mostly depends on the question content
If its related to the instance topics in any way its fine here or in no stupid questions
(if related to experienced devs then it fits in ask exp devs, related to cs as a career then cs career questions)
If not then it might fit in !lifestyle@programming.dev
If not then !random@programming.dev exists as a collector for everything else and could also get a new community started for specifically that (although I assume itll fit into one of the other two categories)
Alright, I'll keep that in mind, thanks :)
You just did
(Meta) Is it ok to ask questions about asking questions about programming here?
Why not? I feel like lemmy is overall a less restrictive environment.
