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.

MODERATORS
damn, there are more top mods than i thought! I remember stumbling on one "powermod" but it turns out they aren't even on this list.
Well, it depends a lot on how you define a "powermod". That graph is based on the number of subreddits moderated by each user, but you might as well take sub size into account, or overall activity.
Just for curiosity I also checked a few power mods that I have genuine disdain towards:
Yup - he almost quit around 2020, as he was being harassed as one of the "powermods". Back then Reddit admins still pretended that they cared about the mods, but they did jack shit to 1) prevent users from harassing those powermods, and 2) curb down the powermods through policy. (And then the Aimee Challenor case popped up, showing that Reddit does have the tool to prevent harassment - but it'll only use them to protect its own ranks.)
I'm fairly certain that most alleged "harassers" just called his bullshit out, that's probably your case. (IMO it's fine.)
However I do think that at least some people sent him death threats, "drink bleach" and the likes.
I was trying to figure out why I couldn't really recognize these names but kinda did then remembered I banned every mod from some list of major posters lol.
