The Lemmy community for helping others and seeking help.

We value kindness: Actions or speech intended to help others.

Formal rules are in the works, but please use common sense (no politics or other unhinged nonsense). The rules will be as lenient as possible to avoid unnecessary censorship and minimize mod power trips.

Curation Policy: If a moderator has reason to believe that certain content is better categorized under a different post, then they may reply to the content asking if it would be better categorized elsewhere, and provide their rationale.

If no response:

Rule of 3: Mod must attempt 3 replies, spaced by (at least) 3 days after each reply.
If there is still no reply 3 days after the 3rd contact, then it is assumed that OP is in agreement, and the mod may curate by copying the content to a different post verbatim, then deleting the original content.

If OP replies:

Other Mod(s) must collectively ask at least 3 good faith questions to clarify OP's rationale, then the mods will vote and determine by majority rule whether to curate the content.
Majority votes to curate: At least one mod in favor of curation must post their rationale, and any dissenting mods may also post their rationale. After this, the mods will curate the content by copying it to a different post verbatim, then deleting the original content.
Majority votes to not curate: Content stays as is. Mod(s) may post their rationale(s).

Legitimately no clue where to look, I live in a very shitty country with nothing regional for me, so no options there, and everything online is exclusively US or UK only it seems, and even then most of them aren't free which I can't afford, and it's only for very specific fields and for specific countries only, nothing general or anything to refer me to the appropriate person or group for what I need.

Need advice on basically everything, am extremely lost in life and am stuck in a very tricky situation, no clue how to navigate all of that without professional help, it's a little too much. No friends or family to turn to so it's just me on my own, sorry if I'm supposed to know all of this already or something but I legitimately don't, please bear with me.

I have no connections so I tried resorting to AI for referrals as a last resort but it didn't do anything for me, still can't find where to go and who to talk to.

No clue if anyone here knows of anything but hey, it doesn't hurt to ask, anything's appreciated.

Thank you for the kindness and patience, it's really appreciated.

Can you elaborate on that? Again I live in a very shitty part of the world, there's barely - if anything at all - here for people like me, and it's also risky, could be fatal for me to reach out locally and expose myself.

It's alright I understand, but different people have different lives and experiences and are treated differently, keep that in mind, not all of us are fortunate enough most of the time sadly.

Well, do you have matrix? We can talk there if you want.

But again, reason why I'm asking for a general professional/consultant of some sort is because I have a lot of life hurdles and their all linked together, don't even know who exactly to look for for what or how, and one field is not enough to tackle all of them, and getting dozens of professionals for each one of them and somehow trying to juggle between them doesn't seem realistic or doable at all, though idk how any of this works so maybe that's just how it is.
