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.

Great, I'll be expecting your participation in /skincare, weddingplanning, engagementrings, kpopthoughts, indiemakeupandmore, ...
The issue is that some of them already have instances, but only 1 sub so I'd be talking to myself all day long
The female userbase is virtually non-existent and until that changes I'm forced to stay on Reddit for relevant news and financial advice.
!skincare@lemmy.world
!weddingplanning@lemmy.world
!engagementrings@lemmy.world
!kpopthoughts@lemmy.world
!indiemakeupandmore@lemmy.world
If we are going to do this, lets do it properly!
Yes I hope that !personalfinance@lemmy.ml gets some more traction over time, there is definitely a gap in that area.
Yep as someone based in Australia I'm also missing AusFinance as the US instance wouldn't even apply to us due to regional differences. Unfortunately Reddit will stay relevant for a long time for niche topics, but I still enjoy Lemmy for everything tech related & memes.
There is at least one instanace dedicated to Australian people, so a personalfinance community created there that's dedicated to finance in Australia would probably work better than an "australian finance" at a generic instance such as .world.
There is a bunch of communities on Aussie.zone
It’s sparse for now, but they are growing. In users, content and engagement.
There is hope for !ausfinance@aussie.zone
That's for sure, we have a long way to go, but good to see that you enjoy it here!
Nonbiney intersex here, I'm a little over half female, what's so important about having full blooded women here?
They tend to be more interested in girly fluff topics like skincare, nail art, weddings, jewellery & guru gossip
Feel free to participate
Fool. Everyone knows girls are into linux, blahaj, D&D, post-ironic memes, technopunk subgenres, summoning demons, and stripey socks
Not saying we're not into it :D
Just that there's stuff besides that then men certainly wouldn't enjoy. I don't think anyone here cares about lashes or what eyeshadow palette just released lmao
Just feels like stereotyping to me. I know lots of people who go against that mold because I'm part of the queer community where there's more diversity. It seems like your problem is less an absence of girls and more a presence of patriarchal conditioning on the population here.
I try to analyse gendered statements like this from the perspective of "can every gender say something similar to this in a perfect world". And since I've only ever met one other person with my gender, it would be unreasonable of me to expect there to be more people of my gender here. I need to find a better way of saying that sort of thing, and doing so taught me there's a better way of saying what you did too
Sorry, what is that? I have legitimately no idea

TIL, thanks!
