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.

Weirdly, the limitations of my iPhone are part of what makes it good for me. Because it lacks a lot of “power user” features like split screen multitasking, I actually end up using it less.
I appreciate that using my phone is frustrating sometimes because I put it away faster. Big plus for my adhd ass.
My other reason is the comparative privacy benefit of apple services vs google services. Apple equivalents of google things work a little less well but they harvest a lot less personal data.
Dude, you understand that hearing this as an outsider, this reads exactly like what (no offense) brainwashed people would say, right? Again, no disrespect, but admitting that a device is more limited and somehow spinning it to be a positive is not really a positive to an outside observer. That just sounds like marketing spin.
People can use whatever the heck they want, but seeing as how I have both devices of a similar age (so one isn't an ancient iPhone versus a brand new high end Android, or vice versa), it aggravates the hell out of me every time I have to pick up the iPhone.
Note the part where I said “for me”.
I’ve had plenty of different smartphones over the last 15 years. Most have been android.
I happen to currently be very happy with my iPhone.
