!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:
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.

You need to type it with an exclamation mark in front. Lemmy will then provide you a dropdown of it's communities, and upon selection convert it into a markdown link:
!fediverse becomes
[!fediverse@lemmy.world](https://lemmy.world/c/fediverse)
which is shown as a link like this !fediverse@lemmy.world
One thing I love with Lemmy is that new comments popup while I'm writing a reply. Saved me from posting a duplicate answer right now.
Yes ! I can't believe Reddit never added this feature years ago... like features that were in RES. Oh well, too late now.
Is there a way to make it so that if someone on lemmy.ml clicks the link, they go to lemmy.ml/c/fediverse@lemmy.world instead?
Not that I know of.
Yep! You can do this with the format:
/c/<community>@lemmy.world
e.g.
[fediverse@lemmy.world](/c/fediverse@lemmy.world)
I've been seeing it used in a couple places, already, actually.
That's so cool! Where does the community list come from? Is the list of the communities I'm subscribed to?
Should be all the communities that your instance has discovered.
EDIT: Just add an exclamation mark. and lemmy should do the markdown thing automatically. If not, under this post, there is an option to "View Source". Click on that and check out what the link looks like.
